Thankyou! I have linked a bookmark in my Google Bookmarks to this post.

One questoin: if it is FCing so bad that I cannot boot up (that was what was happening when I had this happen), I can push the power button then and get to recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] jjtitus098:
I give up on ever getting gps to work. I can get a lock in house fast but if driving it will never lock. So annoying. I've tried every modem possible and none are any better than other.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I was thinking maybe ADB might work. Just need to know the paths. When I do SU, am I in the top directory? So that /system/framework/ is below that?

I do use ADB often for booting to recovery and download, but haven't used it for much else.

Good to know.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
downloaded 5.0, one click odin, rooted, downloaded CWM from market, but no matter what i do, can not flash CWM recovery, therefore, i cant flash this ROM. dose anyone know what happened with CWM? or maybe someone can upload his/her CWM's update.zip? so i can manually boot into recovery mode and flash it? thanks in advance
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
If you don't mind, where are the files I will need?

[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
Friggin' perfect, thanked.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
it doesnt matter what directory you are in. in linux / means the root. think of it like the c:\ its default. so no matter where you are, if you type cd /system/framework/ you will go to system....

sounds like you are running the WRONG one click ODIN... JI6 i presume? you need JF6, not to mention rooting and reflashing CWM is NOT needed... just snag an update.zip file off here and put it on your sdcard. reboot to recovery and reinstall packages 2x and you will be in CWM. you dont even have to boot up your phone into stock if you dont want to. after flashing stock, just pull battery before it gets to the S screen and put yourself back in recovery mode....
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
i flashed back to JF6 not JI6, im new with android, CWM that i downloaded from market dose not let me flash CWM recovery, dont know whats wrong. anyway, got it working with your zip now, thanks :)
[Captivate Android Development] ninjuh:
Please for the love of God keep doing what you're doing Mikey. Please.

Edit: do I need to rename that file for voltage and clock speeds to stay after reboot? Or does hitting apply as boot setting do the job?
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
Flashed this right over 4.3 and I like the way it looks so much I'm not sure I'll flash Dark Soul over it this time Mikey. Everything is looking tight and locking on including GPS, WiFI and the phone. What else would one expect from your ROM. restored all my apps with TiBu and am putting it through some stress testing now.

Once again great work!

Re fixing a bad framework-res.apk...FC...no boot to OS

Oh wait a minute. I am still stuck with the original problem.

How do I get to a screen to use ADB when the phone is FCing so much that it never gets fully booted to the OS? FC, Fc, FC, reboot...FC, FC, Reboot, etc.

That is my biggest problem about fixing it.
[Captivate Android Development] zippox180:
for what it's worth, i flashed back to 4.1 and my gps is back to perfect. not sure what is going on with 5.0 for me but it absolutely hates me. I know these gps issues are spotty but i figured id throw my 2 cents out there. i have xcals 2.2 kernel and jk4 modem on 4.1.
[Captivate Android Development] BigMc71:
FYI...I have the same problem. I have flashed lots of other ROMs and one clicked back to stock. I flashed 4.3 to try it out for a while and then saw 5 come out and wanted to try it. I went back to stock, master clear and did everything like I have many times and now CWM won't work. I've tried the whole process 3 times now.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
ummm....adb is a command prompt run from your computer...you dont need a screen...and bad framework doesnt usually cause actual reboots, just reboots of the framework. i have used adb to get my framework back to working in this state
[Captivate Android Development] Drew489:
FWIW...

Since Perception is JK3 based...it seems as though you can just flash from ROM Manager to Assonance.

So far, so good!

I guess I'm an ASSonance man. :p
[Captivate Android Development] jjtitus098:
I might have to try and go back to 4.1 and see if I can get gps to work. Xcal 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 cause me to not be able to see my phone on the computer though, so guess ill try 2.1.*.
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
What are your GPS issues and what have you tried to resolve them? My GPS on 5.0 hooks up before the nav program is even done loading!! never been that fast before!
[Captivate Android Development] actoman1:
is it possible to change the boot animation in on this rom? and if so how would you go about doing that?
[Captivate Android Development] zippox180:
My gps locks fine and is extremely fast at locking. locking has never really been an issue. On 5.0 i checked lbs and supl.google.com 7276 was in there. deleted gps data and hit get position. locked in a few seconds no problem. tried driving and immediately lost the lock. switched to auto config and again...got a lock but lost it as soon as i started moving. i have since flashed back to 4.1 and everything is all okay. before flashing 5.0 i did a master clear, format and flash to stock just to make sure. did not restore with tibu and instead installed google maps directly from market to make sure everything was fresh. got a lock to 10 meters and all seemed ok. but tracking is failing horribly. not sure what is going on. if anyone else is experiencing this or has any input please throw it in. i have xcals 2.2.1 kernel and jk4 on 4.1. tried the same setup on 5.0 and no luck. sorry for the long post. hope this info is helpful in some way.:D
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Should be fine. It's mostly if you're coming from some other weird ROM.

Sent from my Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
yes, and if you read through the thread you will find it in here.... somewhere. Do a search for animations. not exactly the help you wanted but it's a start.
[Captivate Android Development] jdphilly:
Thanks a million your framework worked perfect! Just had to have that flying animation...DG animation always changed my drop down menu
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
Okay, I am running this the way it was built and flashed it right over 4.3. I'll try to run some tracking tests tonight but most likely it won't happen until the morning. I'll let you know what the results are as soon as I have them
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Theres a bootanimation.zip file that contains png images. These images are played in succession like a flip book. Another folder in that zip contains image files that will be looped over and over until the system boots. Change them to whatever you want.

Sent from my Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] zippox180:
tried it stock as well with no changes same results. but yeah let me know how the tracking is. im gonna test out 4.1 just to make sure it really is working just as good as before.
[Captivate Android Development] jjtitus098:
I can make a lock in the house, but if I try to get a lock in the car, its impossible. I have never had a functioning gps with this phone, no matter what rom, or modem. I don't understand how almost everyone is able to use their gps but I can never. Sigh. I absolutely love this phone but this gps scrap drives me nuts. I sure hope samsung will put out a fix before I grow old...
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
Make sure you're un usb debug mode before starting with the changes so you allow adb access. Worst case scenario, boot in recovery: adb will work fine and there's no framework to worry about.
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
There are a couple of threads on making bootanimation.zip files. I can't find them now because search is unavailable.

If you make a new file, it's important to zip in in store mode (i.e., no compression). The desc.txt file contains information about frame rate, etc that people may want to modify also.
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
Did you root the phone before trying installing cwm? When you go back to jf6, you loose root also. Keeping the update.zip file in the sdcard is probably the best and fastest way to flash the next rom, though.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
I've had the same problem. ROM Manager refuses to flash CWR. I've tried 3G, WiFi, no dice.
[Captivate Android Development] zippox180:
i believe this is the update.zip for cwm. if you throw this on your internal sd and boot into recovery and hit reinstall packages should load up cwm might take a couple of tries. but should get you going. especially helpful for flashing from stock jf6. same way. flash stock. load this on internal sd and boot recovery with 3 button combo. reinstall packages and good to go. it needs two times to work but you dont need root. saves time in the end. :D
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
This is much better than what I have been doing. Thank you!
[Captivate Android Development] zippox180:
no problem. got so tired of flashing stock...signing in to google...opening market and downloading rom manager and rooting. lol soooo long. figured this out and now its no problem. i created an android folder on my desktop and threw in the stock odin,this update.zip and some of my favorite roms. all in one convenient place for my cracktivate addiction. :D
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
Where can I find screenshots of this wonderful rom?
[Captivate Android Development] zippox180:
if anyone is interested below is the live wallpaper from the nexus s. looks pretty smexi on our cracktivates. save apk and copy to system/app. credit goes to Upstreammiami at android central. screeny below on my cap. :D

Notification Panel Colour

I just flashed to Assonance 5.0, and as usual it's very well done. My two issues are as follows (more important issue is #2):

1. Video call options are visible in the Settings app, both under Call Settings and Sound. This is the Bell Vibrant heritage of the ROM coming through I understand, but is there any way to remove this?

2. Notifications in the notification panel when pulled down are in the standard 2.2 white, as opposed to the 2.3 grey. I don't know if this can be fixed in the theme, or if this something buried deeper than that, but it is slightly annoying if only because it's kinda jarring when I see it.

As usual though the whole package is wonderful. Great work.
[Captivate Android Development] Little Dragon:
just flashed 5.0 tonight and i'm coming from Perception b4 (cognition 2.1.6 before that). so far so great! also installed the ginger theme from gtg (sorry, i like that version way more) and it is running sexy smooth :D LOVE that bootup/shutdown animation too! brilliant!

going to test the headset fix asap (which is why i jumped over from perception) and tested the gps in Maps and locked in about 15secs and says was accurate to 10meters. will have to test it in other locations and a test drive.

love this work so far and thanks to everyone for their info in this thread. did a lot of reading in this and axura and cognition, etc threads before deciding on this. doing the TiBu process now...apps only and no system data :p
[Captivate Android Development] PixelPerfect3:
I just flashed 4.3 yesterday!

Since I'm kinda new to flashing I had a question - can I just flash 5.0 over my 4.3 rom without flashing back to Odin?
[Captivate Android Development] rabbivj:
read the 1st post...it requires a fresh flash...ie flash back to stock.
[Captivate Android Development] PixelPerfect3:
Btw I noticed that I couldn't set the ROM to mount USB storage/choose between Kies/PC connection, etc. The option seems to have disappeared...it always goes into Kies mode when I connect it via usb to my pc. Anybody experience this?
[Captivate Android Development] ryude:
Mikey, the Nexus S source + kernel + ROM system dump are all available now. Are you going to work on that now?
[Captivate Android Development] PixelPerfect3:
Yeah I read it, was not sure exactly what "fresh flash" meant. Thanks. I guess I'll just stick to 4.3 for a bit.

I'm curious which camera app is installed with this version. I'm getting very blurry pictures with this camera. Anyone else experiencing the same problem? If so is there an alternative camera I can install? Any help is appreciated. I have attached an example of what the pictures look like.
[Captivate Android Development] sjkoellner:
One issue I'm running into, and I remember seeing a post about it but no resolve. Integrated contact accounts? Am I just missing something, or are they.truly missing from this build?

[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I am describing exactly what happened to me when I installed a bad file. So, it does happen.

I realize that ADB is a command prompt on the PC, and use it most of the time for going into Recovery or Download when at the stock stage.

Maybe it isn't rebooting. Maybe I AM remembering wrong. But what I am positive is that it FC's a bunch, pauses, FCs more, and NEVEr boots to the OS.

So you are saying that if my phone is doing what I describe above, I can enter ADB commands and it will work?
[Captivate Android Development] zippox180:
Most likely xcals 2.2.1 kernel. I have been using for awhile and no problems.
[Captivate Android Development] Krad:
if you can't get to recovery through the rom itself, then just do a battery pull and hold the volume up and down and get to recovery that way...
[Captivate Android Development] antimog:
My data network isn't getting automatically picked up. Does anyone know how I can set the APN manually with this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Sorry. I guess I need to ahve a method to quote the entire conversation.

The topic is not getting into recovery. The topic is how to fix an install of a bad framework-res.apk that is constantly FCing and never booting to the OS, by using ADB, effectively eliminating the need to reflash.

OR, are you saying to use ADB all I need to do is get into recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Darn. Mine are blurry too.
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
You can flash 5.0 over 4.3. I have and have had no issues. In previous releases where they required a "fresh flash" Mikey stated that if you were flashing from Assonance VX.X to the next major VX.X that you could flash directly over.
[Captivate Android Development] Mevos:
Go to settings >> wireless and network >> Mobile Networks >> Access Point Names click menu and do "New APN"

Use this for the settings:

Name: Rogers

APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn

MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com

MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69

MMS Port: 80

MCC: 302

MNC: 720

Everything else blank

Also you might want to try to see if your aGPS works mine didn't on the rogers network, I had to go to settings >> Applications >> Manage applications >> Running and then click on "Google services framework" and do force stop and clear cache. Once that is done, I had to reboot the phone in order to get an aGPS fix.

I got the advice for this at "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845152&page=11"

Great job on your ROM Mikey!
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
You can get the Facebook account to show up in the Sync Accounts by DLing it from the library. The issue I have with that is by not having it in the integrated accounts, it does not sync any data outside of the contacts such as pictures in messaging.

Mikey, anyway to make this happen in an update?

Edit. Tried dropping the SNSaccount.apk and SNSprovider.apk into system/apps and rebooted but still no dice. Facebook shows up in accounts but not in SNS accounts and I get just the green sync and nothing beyond contacts syncs. Also no longer has the ability to sync FB calendar.

Edit. the apks are in the right spot but not installed. I went into System/Apps and tried to install the apks and they would not install. Any advice on getting them to install and then show up would be appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
It's always taken a while to get a lock with my GPS. I managed to get 10 second locks a few times (mainly when using the Rogers modem on 2.1), but generally it was taking over a minute or two to get a lock in lbstestmode and often my nav apps would just refuse to ever lock (before my patience did, at least).

What I found to help me get locks in regular apps was to run an lbstestmode get posistion test first. After that locked other apps would be able to get a lock. Another trick that worked for me was to change the accuracy in lbstestmode to 250. For whatever reason, this made locks much faster, but didn't seem to have any actual negative effect on GPS accuracy.

After using Assonance 4.3 for a while I found that my GPS was refusing to lock. I didn't try lbstestmode, because the Telus modem firmware had been posted and I wanted to go ahead and try that first. I got the same results with the Telus modem. Even lbstestmode wouldn't lock. Then I changed the accuracy to 250 in lbstestmode and the get position test locked in about 2 seconds. After that I could clear GPS data and get almost instant locks in any app without going into lbstestmode first. I don't believe the lbstestmode accuracy setting actually affects other apps, but out of curiosity I changed the accuracy setting back to the default of 50 and continued to get instant locks in lbstestmode and all other apps.

I'm running Assonance 5 now and GPS has worked great right from the start without using the lbstestmode @ 250 accuracy trick.

tl;dr: If you can't get a lock try running an lbstestmode get position test first with the accuracy setting set to 250.
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
Yes, as I told you last night, you can use adb while in recovery and forget about any fc

Hidden Samsung keyboard

A strange thing happened when I was trying to fix my aGPS issues...

I flashed the rogers modem.bin file on my captivate wile I had assonance 5.0 on it and after doing so, I had a brand new Samsung Keyboard with pop ups to get the accents!

I don't know, maybe it's the normal Samsung keyboard for Froyo... What I know is that I like it better than the stock 2.3 keyboard. I find it easier to type on it and vibration feedback is working.

The settings for the keyboard look kinda weird at it feels like there are some options missing, but everything I needed was out there so I guess I'm just going to enjoy my find! :D
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Oh, sorry, and thanks. I guess I missed the comment "...while in recovery".
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
Did it change the locale maybe?

Good luck.

Oh, one more thing: to be on the safe side, I don't think it would be a bad idea to make sure you have a fresh TiBu and a new nandroid backup... **** happens...
[Captivate Android Development] Mevos:
In Locale and Text, "Select Locale" is still at "English (United States)" but i have a new keyboard under "Text settings".

HELP!!!!

So I was on 4.3 and i was most happiest person. then saw 5.0 and got greedy.

Flashed back to Stock using Odin 1 click...then did master clear....rooted using Z4root....installed rom manager...

everything was fine untill rom manager is not flashing clockwordmod recovery....everything else works fine...but just not CWR....I used power and volume button to go into recovery and reinstall package....i get error "cannot open update.zip" "there is not sd/update.zip found"

I am stuck with stock rom....and i am not liking it at all....is there any way

1) to flash CWR without using rom manager

2)flashing rom without using CW recoevery

any help is appreciated...
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Thanks. I do typically do a Tibu. But I had bad experience with Nandroid once. Which brings me to a question. Is it advisable to disable lagfix before doing a Nandroid? That was what was suggested when I had that problem (on a Perception build), but on that particular ROM, I could not get disable lagfix to take.

Modem

Does the JK3 Modem in this kernel support HSUPA? Straighten me out if I am off base here. But when I was on Perceptoin, which supported HSUPA (I was on Build 3...don't remembmer what modem it had...and isn't documented) , I got 5000kb downloads. On this ROM, I am getting < 1500kb.

I noticed that one poster here is swapping in JK4. Not sure if that is why, or what implications that may carry. Would like to get that speed back.
[Captivate Android Development] kramttocs:
So when you're in ClockwordMod and choose to Flash the Recovery (and then select Captivate) does it download successfully? What happens if you choose to Reboot Into Recovery directly from ClockwordMod and then, if prompted, select Reinstall Package?
[Captivate Android Development] ferris2375:
Am I going crazy or was this ROM update-able? Now I don't see a way to update, just a clean install of 5.

I chose this ROM I thought because of the ability to update rather than do a wipe/install, why does 5 not allow an update?
[Captivate Android Development] Mkarin:
Some features/bugs can't be flashed/updated without a complete reinstall, i think...

I think you can only update from 4.1 to 4.2, 5.1 to 5.2.. etc but need a new fresh install when jumping over from version 3.0 to 4.0 to 5.0
[Captivate Android Development] pacman420:
The master clear is probably not necessary, there are only a few specific apps that are going to break if they still have their old data on the SD Card. ALWAYS follow the instructions and if you don't have a problem with taking the extra time to do the master clear, by all means do it, but I've had no problems just doing the Odin stock reflash without a master clear and then installing.
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
Back a couple of pages is an update.zip that will get you into recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
Look a few post up. Copy the update.zip file attached to the post into /sdcard. Reboot in recovery and hit apply update. You should be fine.

I don't think you would have any problem with nandroid since it would be the same kernel and thus same lagfix. I never had to disable it but YMMV.

HSUPA is for uploads, not downloads. If you have any uploads over I believe 300 kbps then you have hsupa.

You can pick between three modems with hsupa enabled: jk3, jk4 and jl3. There may be more but those three are the ones I know and I tested. Again, YMMV on which will be the best for you. You can flash them with odin on top of your rom. No need to wipe anything. Try the three and keep the one you like the most.

Odd. Did you notice any new apk?
[Captivate Android Development] viny2cool:
Yes i did that it worked...sorry was little panicked...thought only i am having this problem....
