I've flashed build nine four times now. (just trying out new things)

everytime i flash and go stock the Perception_build9.zip has no data. Hopefully an isolated issue but none the less. I stuck one on my external just in case so i can move it over.

Anyone else loosing all data in the zip after flashing?

What's the problem with Rom Manager?
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
DUDE!!! I got a "Thanks"

Man, that makes me feel helpful. :D
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
I have not experienced any issues, but some people could not flash correctly without the newest one. I believe it is the same update.zip that has been delivered with Perception builds since v4 or 5....

anyway, I attached it to post #5222 below if you need it, or someone else posted a tinyurl link in #5165
[Captivate Android Development] simulatordos:
Got that, but I just wondered why - - why all of a sudden it broke. A technical explanation rather than it doesn't work anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Did you put your ID back in with Android ID Changer? Or back up the update.id file? :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
Oh... well I guess I will have to defer to the experts.

Unless it is just an incompatibility with the newest version of Voodoo...
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Not sure. I just used my update.zip that I already had on the phone from the last flash, I backed it and update.id to the extSD and internalSD before flashing to stock.

Afterwards I put the .zip back on the /sdcard and booted to stock recovery, re-installed packages ( twice ) and was in Clockwork.

Never installed Rom Manager. Put the update.id back in /sdcard after the flash and double checked with Android Id to make sure all was good.

Always back your update.zip from CWM up so you don't have to worry about flashing it after the stock flash. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
I was having issue flashing cwm on stock jf6 as well with the rom manager. I don't think it has anything to do with voodoo or this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
Hey DG is there a way to change the model number from SGH-T959D to SGH-I897. I do see it in the build.prop but I'm not sure if I edit those thongs or not :-[ .

Thanks for this rom beer money should be reaching in the evening.B-)

Guys, I've seen this posted in numerous places with no one really pitching in to help. I'm experiencing it now. MMS messages are VERY hit and miss. I can send them fine, but when someone sends me a pic, it just says <Downloading> and never actually downloads.

Can anyone offer some insight into this for me? Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Krynn!:
Yeah, that's exactly what I did.

But when I launch the Market and go to My Apps, only apps that I've purchased are listed there.

Ummm... that would be no. Is that something that I should have done? I've got a nandroid backup of P8 that I can go back to if needs be.
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
Do one thing. After restoring apps clear the market data. I hope that fixes ur issue. Also the android ID should be from the stock 2.1 and not from custom rom.
[Captivate Android Development] kryichek:
Yes I am too. I also keep a extra copy of the .zip around.
[Captivate Android Development] maerlim:
I didn't see a response to this. Here's the thread with the less-secure email .apk.

[Captivate Android Development] Krynn!:
Did that. Clearing the market data was one of the first things I tried.

What's the Android ID get you? It's not something that I restored when I was running P8.... But if it's necessary, I can always drop my JH7 nandroid dump back on the phone.

UPDATE: Well, how's this for weird? Out of the blue, all of my apps suddenly appeared in My Apps. I didn't do anything for about an hour and suddenly they appeared.
[Captivate Android Development] maerlim:
I haven't seen it spelled out anywhere. Is 100% charge death completely fixed for non-OC in build 9, or is that "sometimes happens randomly" thing for OC and non-OC?
[Captivate Android Development] or.saeros:
What carrier are you using?
[Captivate Android Development] chrisharmful:
So been in P9 since it was released and so far not one issue. It hasn't froze on me, haven't had to yank the battery after charging, smooth as butter, but I'm not over-clocked so I can't speculate for those wanting to go oc. Phone quality is good. Tested GPS thsi morning, kept a lock all the way to work.

For those wanting the stock lock, try yanking it out of the Gingerbread theme.

Issue getting PICs via MMS

Okay. I am having the same issue only on the Perception/Cognition ROMs. When sent a picture in a mms it simply says downloading, but never does. I am using AT&T, and the Samsung Captivate phone. (Obviously). My data works fine, my calls work fine, but MMS Pics does not work.
[Captivate Android Development] eviling:
yeah i found that charge death issue, it only happens once you clear your battery history. which is quite needed when flashing a rom. it doesn't die while not chargeing though, only when charging, that is the absolute only issue i found with build 8, i can't wait for build 9 :D the beta looked awesome!
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
My carrier is AT&T. I already tried manually putting the APN, but it didn't work.

Still got random charging death last night...so I woke up an hour later without alarm :o
[Captivate Android Development] wonder186:
My initial flash of P9 from JF6 and master clear went well. No FC's or any issues. Thanks DG!

Unfortunately once I got everything restored I started messing with the OC. I tried 1300Mhz first and set it. I then UV'ed 50mV. All was good. I then UV'ed at 1200Mhz by 50mV. I set those values and it froze. I reset the phone and tried it again but did not UV at 1200Mhz, so I set 1300Mhz and UV'ed 50mV. CRASH. Got the phone re-booted and then got the Damaged sd card error. I tried a few re-boots thing it might be my lucky day... No such luck. I one clicked back to JF6 and still got the error. I one clicked back to JF6 again and it finally recognized the internal sd. So I can safely say that my phone cannot be OC'ed.
[Captivate Android Development] grave101:
Is there any way for me to revert back to the original market? Ever since getting the new one I can't update apps anymore
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
You just need to knock the UV settings down to -175 on anything about 1200 and it should work upto 1400.

[Captivate Android Development] pvr:
Perception 9, No OC/UV settings, plugged into computer. Took it out to make a call, plugged it back in.

In a few minutes my phone vibrates and I see that it had turned off since I see the 100% Battery image. Random shutdown first time ever with ANY ROM (Stock JF6, JH7, Any Cognition, Any Perception, Axura etc etc).

Anyone?

That's charge death. Welcome to the world of everyone else running an i9000 rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Necronius:
OT, but....

Son of a b*tch, since when did Google remove z4root and the other root apps from the Market? I decided to flash back to stock for P9, and now I can't even frigging sideload.

<grudgingly downloading SDK to work PC>

Arghh!

Edit: Whew! I have been far too spoiled by z4root. Rooted and flashing P9 now. Thanks, DG!
[Captivate Android Development] pvr:
Nope, Not charging death. Charging Death is with wall chargers and you need to actually take the battery off and it only happens with OC/UV settings on (so far...)

I've had those before so I'd know how to proceed :|
[Captivate Android Development] ArkieMD:
Never experienced it with assonance.

Do I have to flash stock first everytime a new build comes out. I have perception 8. Hate flashing jf6. I don't have any lagfix enabled right now. I don't know if perception 8 comes with it. Never got that config file differ option after flashing it.

P9 is so far so good!!

Thanks DG for your hard work!!

Sadly.. i can only OC to 1200 with Cog kernel 4.. but i dun care about OC tho.

So I have a bit of a problem. I flashed back to stock and rooted, then dl rom manager. I got to flash cwm from the app and it acts like its connecting to download the latest version and poof it stops... I've uninstalled and rebooted several times and for some reason I can't get the key combo to work to get download mode going so I can try and re-flash stock. HELP!
[Captivate Android Development] wade7919:
okay add the update.zip file to your internal sd card from this link http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=464425&d=1292362952

then boot into recovery mode, reinstall packages 2 times you will have CWM recovery which is all you need to flash from stock... and make sure you are doing the key combo's correctly to get into dl mode

Does anyone know where I can find Samsung apps that would work with this ROM.

*sigh* charging death from USB with max voltage to 1GHz... hey DG, any chance we can get a non-OC/UV kernel?

I do not know about other ppl but to me overclocking this device is unnecessary. It's not like we have issues playing anything on this. So far the drawbacks are too bad to have this.
[Captivate Android Development] Jay120171:
No, welcome to the world of OC/UV kernels. I run i9000 ROM's almost exclusively and I don't have this issue with non-OC/UV kernels.

soooooooooo yeeeeaaaaahhhhhh....... I would strongly recommend against attempting to put blackfroyo on this rom. even though i had it running smoothly on another rom with jl3, this one didnt like it to say the least. so now I am back at stock and startin over. stick with 2.5 darkness..... here endeth the lesson.:D
[Captivate Android Development] ctfeet:
Not for me. Set it for 1300 and saved as boot settings. Now i can't boot. Off to flashland again.
[Captivate Android Development] wade7919:
Okay... For those doing OCing, NEVER NEVER set as boot before testing it out first with the Apply for Now option... I never set as BOOT Option.. so if it does mess up it doesn't get stuck in a BOOT LOOP... SO PLEASE JUST USE THE APPLY FOR NOW OPTION AND TESTING FOR A DAY OR TWO BEFORE SETTING TO BOOT OPTION.
[Captivate Android Development] TheShamsMan:

Efficient Flashing Methods and Odin Usage-nandroid

So... I am having a problem ramping up my flashing...

My process looks like:

1-one-click JF6, reboot

2-master clear, reboot

3-one-click root galaxy-s, reboot, delete update.zip

4-enable wifi, attach to market, enter gmail credentials, download rom manager, flash clockwork

5-copy new rom to internal SD

6-reboot to clockwork and flash

7-screw around with titanium backup

So, I think this includes all the best practices for safety, and looks like good common sense to me.BUT..

steps 1-3 include a lot of diddling around, and mostly are included in a Nandroid backup.. YES????

so, can I directly flash a Nandroid with Odin1.3?

Am I missing some logic?

I think I should be able to:

1-odin to stock+gmail+market+wifi+rom manager+clockwork

2-reboot to clockwork, flash new ROM

3-save enough time to really learn to use Odin.

4-$$$Profit$$$- or better $$$TEACH$$$

Any pointers? I haven't had luck in searching and would like to develope some good dox. I think it would eliminate a lot of the how-to chatter and straight away scare the hell out of newbies into staying out of it unti l solid releases are available or ramping them up to good participation.

Myself included.

Please help.
[Captivate Android Development] wade7919:
No... its based off of Telus Vibrant Rom
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
Yup, flash as if you would a rom.

It's manual. Go into the app and you have to select anything above 1000.

I tried 16-15-14 all rebooted just on me found 13 to be stable.

1300MHz and -100 across all. No sleep of death last night and No USB charge thingy yet.

It's very bad for me too as i use my phone as my alarm. (I do have a normal)

But.....I havn't had it yet (only 1 night) P8 started it on the second night for me ...So we'll see.

Thanks DesignGears......everything is running smooth

and Thanks Haloruler for posting those OC stats!
[Captivate Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
max clock 1400

UV from 1120 up to 1600 -175

Edit* froze in seconds
[Captivate Android Development] :
TOO MANY STEPS.

1. Flash Clockwork RECOVERY (the update.zip file will appear on your SDCARD)

2. Back up the update.zip to your computer for future use.

Flashing a new rom -->

1. Flash to stock

2. Turn off phone

3. Put it into RECOVERY mode

4. Reinstall Packages, it will "replace" the recovery

5. Reinstall Packages again

6. Choose ZIP from SD CARD (if the rom is on your sdcard)

7. Install it, and then any other mods (keyboards, themes, etc.)

8. Let the phone boot, and you're done.

All those extra master clear, download stuff, do this with the market, do that adds another 30 minutes onto it. If you follow my steps fluently, it takes 10 minutes to get a new rom up and running.

MASTER CLEARS are not necessary going rom to rom unless you run into issues (such as: Cannot mount /dev/block/mmc0p1) whichh appens on some of DG's experimental roms. (VOODOO ISSUE)
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
Ok...I assume you need help?

Odin Stock JF6

I rarely do masterclear so no need to keep putting update.zip on SD card (it's already there)

Reboot into

recovery

Re-install packages not once but twice (you'll see)

Now your at CW recovery menu

Install Zip from SD card......find the ROM and select ok

Do this for your keyboards,themes etc..........

Hope that helps........
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Agreed..Master Clear is not needed and if you want to reinstall apps with data it is helpful not to use Master Clear. The CW update file can be left in the root dir and the new ROM flashed from there along wiht all CW zips...

Only if I have issues will I Master Clear. Have not used it in the lawst few flashed and all is well.

BTW since Assonance I have not suffered charge death either. I think it has to something to do with the Cogkernel. Running Setrion OC/Uv kernel now and no issue with charging death.

Looking forward to a stable version of Perception (ala Perception 4) Is P9 it? Will be watching.
[Captivate Android Development] wonder186:
OC'ed to 1300 no immediate issues. This worked for me until I tried to wake up my phone up. Going to try DG's freeze fix and see if that helps things.

I did not change any of the UV for 1120Mhz or lower.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I think you are confusing the kernel with the modem.

2.2.1 sounds like Excalibur's kernel. or maybe I am the confused one?
[Captivate Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
Did you set -175 all the way to 1600?
[Captivate Android Development] wonder186:
No just to the OC freq I set.
[Captivate Android Development] wade7919:
This is a base of LJL3 with cogkernel v4 , i maybe wrong but i think the kernel is based off of the same LJL3 Kernel. *DG correct me if i am wrong* so this would be a base of 2.2 LJL3 Rom which is the Telus Vibrant

2.2.1 is a JPU based ROM btw
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
^that is right^ .....I think DG's kernel is for 2.2 use only not 2.2.1
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
perhaps someone should start a voltage settings thread...
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
BTW can anyone disable BLN or BLINKY? I did in both....but they are still doing it.

[Captivate Android Development] wade7919:
Voltage Settings are diff. from phone to phone. so using one setting on one phone might not work on another.

Efficient Flashing Methods and Odin Usage-nandroid

Thanks you guys, some basic clarity there.. I am a little bound discussionwise because we're in Perception9 Dev forum.. I didn't wan't to stray too far off topic and you guys seem to have kept me on track refering how to handle device ROM updates inside a ROM family.

But here I go.. watch out... a little of topic... I am sure DG and a lot of us are also testing other modems, kernals and sometimes other ROM Families... So, the master clear seems important...

One of the major hurdles is Voodoo and switching to OC vs non-oc and non-voodoo... Again, Master clear becomes important.

So anyhow, I just found Supercurio's Stock Kernal+voodoo 5 ODIN package for captivate. It includes Clockwork. This seems to be my BIG answer. I don't want to find out I need to master clear after I've set very much up. It's a pain to diagnose and redo.

From now on I think I will:

1-Odin to STOCK+Voodoo5+clockwork with Master Clear, reboot

2-QtADB New rom, reboot

3-clockwork new ROM, any family...

4-$$$SaveBeer$$$

5-<option>-Revert, Odin to STOCK+Voodoo5+clockwork with Master Clear, reboot, Nandroid restore...

Is that legible, does it make sense?

I mean DG's 50 Flashes, I get it, somedays there are two or three ROM families released and ongoing GPS testing... I need revision control.
[Captivate Android Development] wade7919:
2.2.1 was causing alot of issues when we was testing it.

then enable USB debugging.

Then reroot my phone ( this is an update.zip file that is always in the root dir of my phone ).

then reinstall titanium backup from the store.

then restore all my backups.

then go to my rom manager which was just restored.

then try to update to P9.

Make sure your update.zip ( not the root one) is on your phone from CWM recovery flash or download the file a few pages back.

Flash to stock and then make sure you have the cwm update.zip in your root dir and the rom on your sdcard.

Boot into recovery mode and select reinstall packages; you'll have to do it twice to get to the clockwork recovery.

Now. select install zip from card and browse to the rom location.

Select it, follow the prompts and sit back. :-)
