Anyone else have a problem with BLN on 4.3? I disabled it in recovery but it was still turning on the lights. I went back to recovery and verified it was disabled. Then I downloaded the BLN control app from the market and that successfully turned it off.

In other words, I ended up with the configuration I wanted; I just had to go about it differently. :)
[Captivate Android Development] junktzu:
This was happening to me but it was because the scaling_max_freq was set to 1280000 and not 1300000 which is what would happen if you upgraded from the 1.4.3 to 1.4.4 or 1.4.5 since 1.4.3 was at 1.28Ghz.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I have given up on the Black Froyo Theme for these latest ROMS..It borked Axura and I had similar issues on Assonance 3.1 before that...Check out The theme in my sig, Its better than BlackFroyo... I am using the Perception 8 version and it's flawless.. I think you will end up preferring it if you liked Black Froyo
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I agree. I tried Vlingo and it took a few times...I look at it this way .If I can dial faster or call up what I need using the screen faster i won't use Voice. In the car I use the Built in BT (10 Honda Accord Coupe BT) it works VERY well there. auto connect and disengage when I leave the vehicle on the phone. hand offs both ways are seamless. are smooth
[Captivate Android Development] jaxf250:
yes same issue here with BLN - thanks for the tip on how to fix it
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
Thanks for the 411 - Those were the original instructions based on coming from another ROM, I was using a previous version and on the last major change Mikey did not suggest going back to stock so wanted to double check.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Sounds fine. Car is main reason I want it. I"m driving a pre-bt car, so I need it in the phone.

What I've experienced in other cars is that it is not nearly as good as VD on the phone.

I am going to go ahead and install this (putting JF6 on right now). I'll try using this and see if that works out for me.

The one big thing driving me to try this is that I have now for the second time had my sensors quit, meaning, no Screeble, or auto-rotation, whild using DGs roms. I have no idea that it is because of his roms. It has happened both times after updating some apps. But, thought I'd try another and see if it happens.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Android ID?

By the way, I don't see that there is an app on this ROM to automatically update the Android ID.

I presume I will need to downlod the program and do that.

Anyone been thinking about that?
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Works fine for me.

I just tried it. I long pressed search, said "Call David", and his mobile number came up with the option to dial it.

Unless you're talking strictly bluetooth.
[Captivate Android Development] DoritosMan:
How is the battery on this ROM
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Most likely due to the overclock.

Try xcaliburhand's reoriented kernel, which has no OC/UV. Then just remove the Voltage App using ADB or Titanium Backup.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Mike, I can't stay off my phone. I blame you!

:-)
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I know the feeling...with all the glory of my PC and the amazingness of 3d Gaming with my 60" dlp....I cant get away from my 4" screen lol
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I'm using with a different kernel but battery life is on par with other roms I've flashed. Not bad, not great. I'm sure it would better if I wasn't always on it ;-)
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
Thanks, I really like the look of blackfroyo and sadly, I'm the type of person that will pick looks over some things. :p I've been trying to search for which phone apk helped solve someone elses issue. Worse comes to worse I will flash darkness when I flash 4.3
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
The subject is that it doesn't work with the BT key. Sorry, that got lost in earlier quotes.

Yes, it works with long press of search button.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
The only theme I liked better than Black Froyo is unfortunately part of a ROM : di11igaf's Rom v2.5- 12/4/10

I am trying to find a way to get that into this one somehow.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Speaking of themes. Has anyone successfully loaded a circle battery mod on this rom. I was able to load the jk3 darkness theme easily but circle battery mods have been a no go, causing fc's and constant rebooting. I used the kitchen and uploaded the framework file as instructed. Weird.
[Captivate Android Development] jjtitus098:
Am I the only one that still has bad GPS after all the fixes using this ROM? Its weird. I can get a lock in the house but when driving it won't ever lock on and if it does, it loses the lock quick. Any ideas? I think I have done everything I can to try and fix it. Guess I might just have to wait for an official fix, if that ever happens.
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
I was able to with no issues but have since loaded a different theme.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Thanks. Weird. Maybe its because I flashed the theme first and the battery mod over it. I was able to install another battery mod from a different rom without issue. It seems to only be the mod I receive from the kitchen.
[Captivate Android Development] rasroygbiv:
Android ID changer from the market. You have to flash back to stock to retrieve your original ID.
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
From Mikes OP- "*** If you'd like a different type of Battery Mod, take the framework-res.apk from /system/framework and use this website: http://circle.glx.nl/" This is what I did, and you have tons of options. I used the miui option.
[Captivate Android Development] rasroygbiv:
It's OC to 1.3ghz by default, but you can scale it down to 1ghz with the Voltage Control app easily.
[Captivate Android Development] dontshakepandas:
Any chance the haptic feedback on the home key will get fixed for this ROM? I'd like to try, but I like the haptic feedback turned on, and its weird if it works for everything but the home key.
[Captivate Android Development] slifer315:
I dunno dude, im still running 4.1 with the 1.5.2 kernel, overclocked to 1200MHz, with no problems at all..
[Captivate Android Development] slifer315:
i believe there is a startup script to automatically load an update.id file (contains an android id) from the sd card if there is one. if there isn't one, the script automatically randomly generates one for you.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
The following script is executed at startup:

#!/system/bin/sh
#
RANDOM=$( </dev/urandom tr -dc A-F0-9 | head -c16 )
AID="/sdcard/udpate.id"
DB="/dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db"

# loop until the sdcard is mounted

while [ $(mount | grep -c /mnt/sdcard) != 1 ]; do
sleep 1
done

# loop until the database file exists

while [ ! -e $DB ]; do
sleep 1
done

# If update.id exists on the sdcard, use that
# else create one and use it

if [ ! -e $AID ];	then
echo $RANDOM > /sdcard/udpate.id
fi

ID=$(cat $AID)

# insert into database

sqlite3 $DB "insert into secure (name,value) values ('android_id','$ID');"

On your SD Card there's a file "udpate.id" (lulz typo), which has the number in it.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I take it there's no risk in manually changing it. I do this with all the roms I flash. I change it back to the stock eclair id.
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
....disregard I'm a moron
[Captivate Android Development] jdphilly:
Will perception flying animation work if you have blackfroyo installed on this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
the kernel or the stuff above?
[Captivate Android Development] Byakuga1:
Is anybody having issues with the new version of swype? When I boot up my Captivate, the process.swype.android.inputmethod keeps failing on me.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I understand and GUI is important becasue thats what we see everyday. I was convinced Black froyo was the best until i took a look at the new Darkness. I have used the older darkness and wanted more of that so I found BF. But the new Darkness IMO is better (Less gloos less no faux chrome and importantly flashes seamlessly with this great ROM. I can still use the BF graphics with launcherPro as well
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
4,3 is nice. I particularly like the headset button fix, but It has been less stable for me than 3.1 was. I can't connect to WiFi at work (haven't tried it at home yet) and I'm getting lower benchmarks across the board (quad, linpack, neocore). I also have issues with root access, and can't make an nandroid backup. I flashed back to stock and reflashed 4.3 twice following the OP exactly. Anyone else experiencing any of this?
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
+1 for Darkness. Been using this one for a while.
[Captivate Android Development] ronandi:
Sorry it seems this is already a few pages back. Anyone know? Does it come OCed without touching anything?
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I have had issues with various incarnations of OC/UV kernels. Sleep death was a major problem for me. I decided to forego the "speed" enghancments I really did not notice in all honesty and install Excaliburs Kernel. Solid as a rock, great battery life (5hrs 24m Wifi 38% Display 26% Cell Standby 23% Phone Idle 11% 93% left)...That is the best battery life I have had on any ROM/kernal combo and i only really require 15 hours max since I charge nightly.

But no longer FLASHING nightly becasue this is a very stable and swift combo....

then again my headset is still sealed in the baggy. I prefer my Westone 3s for music. :)
[Captivate Android Development] J-T:
If nothing else works you can always zip the framework-res.apk file then extract it and open it and go in and copy and paste the battery images from another rom in and it will give you the battery images you want on this rom. You can also do that with many other images in the pull down notification bar.
[Captivate Android Development] J-T:
I've ran into a small bug and would like to see if anyone else has experienced it. Of course I'm running Black Froyo so it is probaby that. I'm on 3.1 right now and noticed when i went to use my speaker phone I can hear them but they cant hear me. I'm probaby going to upgrade to one of the other updates but thought i'd throw that out there for people to check out.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I was able to extract the framework apk from perception and drop it in this rom (I like numbers on the battery). But when I did the same for the zip file I received from the kitchen all hell broke loose. I tried flashing and extracting, nothing worked. I really like circle battery A but I'll get over it, I hope.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I just re-read this. Unzipping the actual framework file. Interesting. I'll try this next time I reflash. Too satisfied now to screw things up :-)
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
My God this ROM is getting super popular...I knew it would happen! :-)

So I feel that I need to repeat something I said when it was beginning....

MikeyMike01

if this keeps up you are going to become a famous ROM developer around here so remember what I said before...keep it cool, enjoy it but whatever you do....do not let it go to your head like others have done becoming egoist and self centered. Be humble and we will be here for you my friend.

Keep up the great work!
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
great work here....indeed

thee "sleeper" rom

I may stay right here even if you do not stay humble MikeyMike...
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Mobile AP - Faster ??

Ok, maybe I'm loving this rom a little too much.

I apologize if this is a silly question but does the JK3 modem effect Mobile AP speed? I swear MobileAP is faster with this rom. No?
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
^^^This is in so many ways!!

I don't know much about the other developers but I think this is a spectacular rom!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
I would love to do just what you said, but I have no idea how to "install Excalibur's kernel." Could you point me in the right direction? (I'll still look into it myself, but I feel better having someone explain it specifically for this situation).
[Captivate Android Development] gcamp0730:
This is by far the best rom I've seen in quite a while! I think my flash addiction may be temporarily cured! Not completely, but at least for a little while.... ;)
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Great, thanks! I get the concept but (noob question alert) what program do I use to open the res file. I tried to google (unzip .apk file) but that sent me all over the place.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Update: Wifi is good, it was work's wifi freaking out. I was able to make a nandroid backup only after wiping battery stats. I still don't have proper root access. Apps can get SU, but I can't access filesystem outside of /mnt/sdcard. Just giving potentially useful feedback /shrug
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=808286

You can use ODIN or flash it with CWM. It's a snap.
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
just rename the .apk to .zip and open it in winrar. When you're done, rename it bak .apk
[Captivate Android Development] J-T:
I just edited my reply to you to walk you through the steps... I thought i should explain more. You dont need any special programs except maybe winrar to unzip and rezip....also you might have to set windows to show the full file name so you can rename the file from .apk to .zip
[Captivate Android Development] jdphilly:
Would it be safe to apply perception 8 flying animation to this rom with blackfroyo already installed. any help would be appreciated..
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Yup that did it!

And J-T thanks for the vaulable info. And they say there's no help on XDA ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Wait, can I flash this onto my current ROM? I thought kernel changes meant stock+masterclear.
[Captivate Android Development] J-T:
No problem.. I'm still learning a lot myself.. I have no real developing skills but i'm learning little things as I go. Its not often I'm able to help someone so I'm glad I could.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Yup you can flash this over your current rom and it doesn't have to wipe data. The first boot takes a little longer than usual as Voodoo initializes.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Thank you so much for your help.
[Captivate Android Development] J-T:
Where are the shutdown animations? I noticed the newer version has both boot and shutdown animations. I would like mine to match but I use a different animation and would like to change them :)
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Don't mention it :)
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
install 7zip on your computer

right click the file, 7zip, open archive... you dont have to rename or repack
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I would disable-Lagfix first though...
[Captivate Android Development] pjrudd:
Anyone having problems installing apps from the market with the latest release?
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Try clearing Market data.
[Captivate Android Development] junktzu:
For some reason the market never quite works right for me even after clearing the data. For example, I still can't get Pocket Legends to update, it always says download failed no matter how many times I try. Most other apps just take a few tries to get them to install or update.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
What are you guys using to upload screen shots?

I tried Shootme and through XDA ap and Tapatalk Pro I get file format errors.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
I thought the lagfix was baked into the rom. It formats everything in ext4 right from the get-go if I'm not mistaken. Now to figure out how to re-root safely.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
May sound weird but try this. Open google talk, log out and then log back in. Let me know if that helps.

I remember reading this somewhere.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
none here. But I have with every ROM at one point or another. Tried all the things , android ID changer, edited the ID file myself, deleted it, wiped Market data. Eventually it will download.

So far I have been lucky with this ROM. Did 35 updates today and only stalled on 5 (the same 5 all the time). but I manually installed them fine.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Moding framework-res worked like a champ. Guess who's sporting a circular battery mod ;)

I took the lazy way out and copied the entire drawable-hdpi folder :p
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Yeah it is. but I have become so cautious about lagfixes. I had to disable lagfix to install a theme! I would imagine installing a Kernel would be a lot more processes. A dev would know exactly whats going on.

Its like Master Clear. This is the only ROM out of dozens of flashes I did not use Master clear after 1 click Odin.....and all is well and it was convenient to have my files not erased. I DID clear all user data and cache in CW though
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I flashed it without disabling but I totally agree with you. Lag fixes are temperamental. Better safe than sorry.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
TiBu and straight file copy makes MasterClear less painful, so I always do it. If it was Ryan OCLF or something similar I would disable it, but I wouldn't even know how to disable the lagfix in Assonance. It's working fine so far, so fingers crossed.
[Captivate Android Development] votum:
Does stay awake during debug work now?

I use my phone as my speedometer (big tires) and need it to stay on lol./
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
What happens when you use this:

busybox mount -o rw,remount /system/

Sent from my Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] chisnz:
Like so many others, I've been loving this ROM (3.1), so huge thanks to MikeyMike.

QuickOffice was useful to me too, and I'd like to get it back. I had TitaniumBackups of everything previously, so maybe I'd have it in there but I'm not sure of the name (since everything's in the .com form). After running with the old Titanium backups I still don't see QuickOffice, so I suspect I need to find the .apk somewhere.

And thinking that flashing roms might become rather addictive, after problems using Odin to Master Clear getting to 3.1, I'd like to learn how to use Odin properly. Main question: Where do I download a version of Odin that I should use on a Captivate?

I used a version of Odin that came with I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0. I figure that if there are differences and this one wasn't right, that could explain my problems. Is there a plain vanilla Odin that I should use instead?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
thats the standard OneClick Odin....thats the easiest you are going to get
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
In terminal on my device it just executes with no error. I noticed that after a fresh boot, when I try to execute: adb root

I get adb cannot run as root in production builds. I'd like to re-root, but I'm not sure how to do so safely.
[Captivate Android Development] satans spawn1972:
I did a flash back again with Odin, Master Cleared, rooted, Clockworked, Flashed from internal card again, upon first boot I went into Voltage app and slowed down.............NO MORE FREEZING!

THANK YOU!

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
JK4 Modem

Just Installed the JK4 modem.....

I have a feeling this will show up in all future ROMS....
[Captivate Android Development] satans spawn1972:
This is how I installed it the first couple of times and no luck, just freezing.

But I took advice from jaxf250 and slowed down max freq to 1000 using

the voltage app and no more freezing.

THANKS FOR THE INPUT THOUGH!

:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] jaxf250:
You are welcome - glad you are up and running again. I think in my own experience the 1200 speed was the best my unit ever ran at... anything faster and I got problems....

Note to Mikey - please make the next ROM with a 1200 setting in the mix for OC values... and a 1000 to set it to stock for those that wish.... thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I saw Mike downloaded this earlier. I'm sure if it turns out good he'll cook it up ;-)

Perhaps with Froyo 2.2.1
[Captivate Android Development] ronandi:
Is uninstalling the swype included here as simple as removing it from /system/app? I just got Swype Beta so I'll want to use that.

Any chance you are going to update really soon Mikey? I think JPU came out recently and if theres an update coming, I don't want to flash when my batt is full only to see Assonance v5 :D
[Captivate Android Development] Doug8796:
What kind of speeds are you guys getting on quadrant linpack etc? Are they better than other captivate roms?
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Also remove libSwypeCore.so from/system/lib/
[Captivate Android Development] thejonesyboy:
Hey Mike, thanks for the tip - I flashed 4.3 and luckily managed to boot on 1300. Wish I knew why it wasn't working last night! I dropped it to 1000 and am running happily with Setiron's kernel still.

Thanks mate
[Captivate Android Development] jaxf250:
OK, can someone please send me a zip installable battery mod that shows the larger countdown charge numbers in the circle (circle mod-style) ?

I tried for over an hour tonight with the kitchen and the manual copy/paste/zip steps, all to no avail... nearly borked my phone but luckily I still had the gingerbread theme on the SD, so I could flash it (again) and thus fix the /system/framework files to get my phone booting again (was stuck in the endless reboot loop from hell).... I knew I should not have tried doing that battery mod myself.... ughh... thanks guys. btw, is the reason I cannot apply it b/c I put in the GB theme?

I also popped on the JK4 modem... will try it out tmrw. and see how she does during the day with calls etc.

I def. have a "flashing" disorder.... always have to tinker with it, even when it is running great! LOL :D
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Same happened to me a few pages back. I fixed it with the help of others by modifying the framework-res.apk.
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
Hey Mikey, I've been running this since the first version and am now on most current. The only issue I am having tonight is that I can't seem to get my other launcher to load in... It's the modified TW launcher with the 5 icon tray. Any idea why it might not install?
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Well he will be glad to know I can receive and make calls...I actually pulled the stock headset out of the baggy and (wow it doesn't sound bad at all) I called my phone from my house phone and used the wired headset.....all worked . Interrupted the music with a ringtone I selected.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Those "synthetic benchmarks" don't much apply to these devices. Only good for letting one know if lagfix is on or off.
[Captivate Android Development] rasroygbiv:
Running jk4 modem now and download speeds are about the same but upload speed is quicker than I have ever had at home.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
If you take a picture, does it show it in the gallery?
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
chief, everything is fine from my end. would you please consider to cook stock music player in your next release?
[Captivate Android Development] lbbo2002:
Took 10 pics and they show up in the gallery just fine. I can pick them individually or use the slide show. Anything else I should be looking at?
[Captivate Android Development] Inzombie:

[Captivate Android Development] tietherope:
I'll most likely give this a shot tonight or tomorrow. Looking forward to getting some theme support.
