alright after a short panick attack i am happy to say that this is up an running finally. I thought i bricked my phone .went to odin back to stock and the progress bar stopped at 2 tics. when I looked at my phone to see what was going on the screen was pink.... PINK I say!!!!!!! i have never seen that in all my flashes. i unplugged the usb closed odin and took the battery out ( sim card and sd already out) put batt back in and phone was dead, no life, would not turn on. After a brief emotional break down, i left the batt and everything out for about 2 minutes and tried again that time it worked. I was coming from axura 2.1 and yes i had disabled voodoo. just wanted to share so if it happens to someone else dont panick leave batt out for a few and try again worked for me. other that that the rom seems great. batt drain seems excessivly fast but have not given it a fair chance yet. battery dropped like a rock on axura 2.1 for me . dont know why :confused::D
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
Preface: I am not running latest ROM, but this is what I would try, Using root explorer extract DeskHome.apk from /system/app of the RC2.1 zip. Paste that file into same location of phone and hopefully there is not another file needed.

This will change your clock so you wont have the clock with time zones and the stopwatch.

Edit: confirmed to work by Krad
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
Agreed.

I read awhile back the hacked camera.apk that uses the power button to snap pictures didn't work on 2.1. Anyone know if that's the case with 2.2?
[Captivate Android Development] Krad:
there isn't a deskhome.apk in 2.2.. Just added it to system/app with root explorer and I am in business...

looks sweet with my cod black ops wallpaper.

gave you thanks
[Captivate Android Development] Nodnarb1974:
I have to say this is by far the best ROM that I have tried. GPS finally works like it's supposed too. So fast and smooth too. Props to the Devs. Thanks for all your hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] Spidious:
Still wish the v2.2 had one with the hands. Since for some reason I can't get it installed ?
[Captivate Android Development] JPxM0Dz:
Todays rom is brought to you by the letter "H" ;)

Thanks hans

Running perfect with Seti's v1.43-XT @ 1350
[Captivate Android Development] Krad:
if anyone is interested....

My tweaks or changes after loading 2.2

-removed gingerbread keyboard and replaced with black and blue droid x keyboard

-replace browser db with no saved bookmarks

-remove samsung bloatware apps (memo, samsung apps, tw widgets)

-load sents 1.4.3 1200 kernel with no uv/oc

-use spare parts to speed up animations and transitions

-loaded deskhome.apk for analog clock

can't wait to try out gps again... but know it will be good!

excellent job all around.. just waiting for a dark theme.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Sgs spare parts?
[Captivate Android Development] Spidious:
Just put in v2.2 and it talks on rebooting ? ! ?

Help!

Hey guys whats up!

I love this ROM, fast as hell!

I have just one problem when flashing. I go back to stock settings and master clear aswell. Flash ROM it goes well, but apon reboot it never gives the option to back up(option). So I can never load up Lag fix.

Help!
[Captivate Android Development] Spidious:
Many pages back I think on some phones that option isn't available. But lagfix is installed automatically ?
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
1. Did you flash on a full battery? (A.K.A. Charged with the Phone Turned OFF?)

2. Do you install any apps that may drain the battery?

Yes, that's Voodoo...

Which leads to my question...

Why did our phones come with it stock?
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Did you hear the lady talking to you? If so, that's when voodoo lagfix was enabled... no need to do the "new config-backup/restore" thing...
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Because Samsung paid for rights to put it on our phones... That's how software licensing works :p
[Captivate Android Development] Tarasque174:
On every other ROM I hae tried I get that promt. But everytime I have flashed this ROM (6 times) it never gives that promt.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Lagfix is now using Voodoo, so there is no option to backup & store on reboot.

It does it automaticly.

The backup & restore option was part of SetrioN (sp?) Kernel.

Read Above.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Thats what I thought, but i was just curious.

Read my post on the previous page.
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
oh yeah.... thanks
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
WooHoo! Just loaded 2.2 and so far so good. Will continue to report in.

You had me at the Einstein wallpaper (even though I'm a big fan of Tesla). LOL.

Hans and the crew that supports him --- GREAT JOB!

I think this is more an app issue, but is anyone else running Netqin Mobile? It silences my ringer and I have to freeze it with TiBu to get hear it. All other notices work fine so far. Had this issue with 2.1 as well. Anyway, I emailed the creator of the app to see what's up with that, but thought I'd throw it on the table here as well.
[Captivate Android Development] Tarasque174:
Yeah I heard her,lol. I did not know thats what she was doing. Thnx
[Captivate Android Development] papilliond:
First I would like to commend all the experts on here taking the time out to help people in this forum. I have flashed several other ROMS and had many questions but refrained to ask because of all the snide comments and "read the thread" posts. I have been interested in this thread for a while and have read every post so far. I was going to flash 2.1 but decided to wait for 2.2. My question is most other Roms I have flashed I have either flashed over existing Roms (which may have caused problems) or odin to stock. This is the first Rom I will flash that masterclear is required. I have not mastercleared before and would like to know what everyone saves to their external sd before masterclear. I have saved my DCIM file for my pictures, a copy of my recent TB, a copy of AXURA 2.2 and a copy of the update.zip from the first page of the thread. Is there anything else I should put on the external sd? Also the method I used was making a copy in Astro and saving it on my external sd. Is this mehtod sufficient? If this is ok, once i flash to stock all I need to do is copy the files from the external sd to the internal sd correct? Sorry about the long winded post but I am excited about this Rom and don't want to make any mistakes or lose anything that I might need being this is my first master clear. Thanks in advance.:D
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
yes phone was fullu charged and as far as apps that drain batt yeah, lol i probably do have a few. on 2.2 bat has dropped from 100% to 83% in 90 mins. will probably have to let it go though a couple cycles before i can really tell though. now i just need a good theme lol:D
[Captivate Android Development] Krad:
The app is called spare parts... think it is for sgs... there are options to speed up animations and transitions to fast so everything is pretty much instant.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
I see that voicemail notices aren't popping up in the top bar and read in the OP to use Google Voice, but I don't want to go that route just yet.

Does anyone have the phone.apk file I need to get the stock notice to run? Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Master Clear is recommended... not required...

FWIW: I have never MasterCleared my phone... Just ODIN back to stock and flash. :)

If you have problems, you can always go back and Master Clear it to reflash, but I don't think you'll have problems; I never have.
[Captivate Android Development] ThWACkD:
Restoring w/TiBackup

Quick question regarding restoring with TiBackup after flashing RC2.2:

If I choose Restore Missing apps and all system data, will this overwrite all of the newer apps that the ROM installs with what I backed up from RC2.1 prior to fllashing back to stock w/Odin? (i.e., will it overwrite the newer Email.apk and the hacked Camera with the versions from RC2.1?)

If so, is it safe to re-run the AXURA ROM flash to get those newer files back, or will I just cause more problems?
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
What do you have against Google Voice? It's easy to setup and you get VM notices in the toolbar, as well as transcribed (voice-to-text) emails... Sooo much better than carrier voicemail.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I just have to say, again after loading the latext axura, this is the smoothest experience of any Froyo ROM I have loaded. Its just solid Hans/Master....great job guys.

I do have a question, I see several loading on Serions kernel versus the stock one. I have personally rarely noticed a difference but if I had to say I would think that version 2.1 of Axura that I had better battery life with the stock kernel but it was a bit faster on Serions. Is that about it for everyone? Honestlly, the speed increase for me OC'd at 1200 was not that noticable in day to day use, only in "quadrant" scores..to me anyway. Battery life did seriously seem to degrade when in use but since I UV'd standby used less.

Much respect for your efforts.
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Choose "Restore Missing Apps w/Data"

When you restore system data, you are asking for trouble...

...and if you choose to restore missing apps, it won't overwrite anything because it's only restoring apps that aren't there.
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
The lag-fix is installed automatically. When you hear the sexy voice on the first boot up? That is the lag-fix being installed
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
There is no prompt; it's done as part of the installation
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Some people had issues with the kernel in RC2.1 being a little sluggish... but I haven't heard any complaints about the newer Xcal kernel that's included in RC2.2
[Captivate Android Development] ThWACkD:
Cheers for the quick reply!

So I did in fact choose "Restore Missing Apps w/Data", but none of my email accounts were restored, nor were the icons on my home screens & wallpaper. Figured the System Data option was the way to go to get all that back.

If I don't restore system data, I'll just have to manually do all that stuff again, correct?

Thanks again!
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Yeah... trust me, it's better to manually type in your email and put icons on you home screen than having to reflash to stock and reflash the ROM because you restored the wrong system data and it made your phone all wonky... :)
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Okay, this is for anyone who is having problems with Market FC'ing:

1. Open SGS Tools Application

2. Tap MarketFix

3. Make sure both "Clear Market Cache" & "Reboot" are checked.

4. Tap "Apply"

When your phone reboots, do the following:

1. Go into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications

2. Tap the "Running" tab.

3. Find "Market" in the list (about half way down)

4. Tap on "Clear data" & "Force stop"

And you should be good to go!

This has fixed the market for me on both RC2.1 & RC2.2
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
That is correct, on both
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
I know, I know. Kind of butt-backwards of me to ask this, especially when I'm brave enough to mess around with my phone. LOL.

Please bear with me on my ancient ways.
[Captivate Android Development] papilliond:
Ineyeseakay, if I don't master clear i shouldn't have to worry about the update.zip right? odin, then reinstall packages until CW menu and install Auzura from downloads right? Thanks for your answer earlier.
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
There's an app that halfway-kinda-sometimes works for carrier voicemail notifications... but if you're truly that much against switching to GVoice; I'm afraid you aren't going to get consistent Vmail notifications on this ROM. :(
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Yep... That's how I always do it. :)
[Captivate Android Development] papilliond:
Inneyeseakay, one more question. When I restore my apps with TB can I restore my bookmarks and contact pictures?
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Contact pictures should be stored on GMail if you back up your contacts there... If not, I'm not sure. I always sync my stuff with GMail.

You can poke around and try to restore some of the system data, but I highly recommend doing them one at a time, that way if something goes wild... you know which one not to restore next time.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
I have had problems in the past when not doing a master clear, so if you wish to do it, go ahead, but if u have problems, then i recommend you to flash stock, and do a master clear.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Ahh, bugger! Looks like I'll dive into GVoice later today. Lol.
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
Try this if you want to copy and paste repetetive information. Place in pull down bar and get to it easily. I use it for email addresses and their server settings that I constantly have to look up or for login names...

Here for download or on in Market.

Anyone else having issues with the screen not rotating?
[Captivate Android Development] domin8:
sometimes the pulldown will get out of sync from what choice is really chosen. go into settings > display > and u can check/recheck the box and fix it that way.
[Captivate Android Development] phlunkie:
Nope tried that.

Will reflash later. Had darky's rom on before this. Maybe the master clear and one click odin was messed up. Have places to be. Should be fine until later.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
also, the stock launcher does not have landscape mode
[Captivate Android Development] ThWACkD:
So it looks like the "pattern unlock" is no longer in 2.2. Anyone know where I can get it to install?

EDIT: Nevermind, found it in a different place. Still new to Android. :)
[Captivate Android Development] Bigdog1:
Guys and Gals I do love 2.2 and all that comes with it but I still have to say that 1.5 is still noticably faster. This has nothing to do with quadrant scores. though I have jumped from 1050 to 1450 using 2.1 and then 2.2. However I said that 1.5 is NOTICABLY faster. does it have to do with the seti OC/UV that was included in 1.5?

Can we get all the 2.2 changelog over to the 1.5 base?
[Captivate Android Development] phlunkie:
Using launcher pro
[Captivate Android Development] Roof King:
2.2

Thanks again hans for your efforts!

No issues to report with 2.2 however...

imho 2.2 doesn't seem to have the snap that RC1 and previous versions had.
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
My observation...

I like the looks of this...but...after wiping the battery stats a few times..deleting the stats bin..and calibrating a couple times...the battery life on this still isn't real good.

Also..while some may like seeing a H on their status bar..I prefer seeing the 3g up there.I am also not getting as good of reception with this update..

GPS...well..not really happy about only getting 20 meter accuracy now..even with the different tweaks applied..

Not being able to adjust the voltages is something I don't like either...why not include a voltage app for doing this at the supplied clock ?

Wi-fi is still scanning at every 2-3 seconds when active...no setting to disable when the screen is off..

While some of the new features are very nice,and I can and do appreciate all the hard work involved..I'm not real happy about what isn't working properly..I have flashed and master cleared a few times..so I don't really think this is the issue..

Mac
[Captivate Android Development] Pvster:
can anyone comment on the current features/tweaks? what exactly is the wifi accuracy increase noted in the change log?

i'm still running RCE1 and love it so much i'm having a hard time convincing myself to flash to 2.2 lol.

keep up the great work hans! at the rate you're going, you'll have axura become an official rom from samsung long before froyo actually comes out...
[Captivate Android Development] Dot Merix:
Hi Hans,

I know you have VM as a non issue issue and that is more than likely the case with everyone in the US.. But us in Canada don't have access to Google Voice as far as I'm aware of so we're stuck having to use the voicemail solutions provided by our carriers.

Is getting regular voicemail notifications something that is in the works for the future?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
20m accuracy is pretty damn good....especially for these phones, i dont even know how this is a valid complaint

this kernel isnt configured for Overclocking OR undervolting, so how could you undervolt something that doesnt have it available in the kernel??
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Hans is trying to aim for Stability, not the "Fastest rom on planet earth"

This rom is PLENTY Fast enough for me, without overclocking/

Hans,

I noticed what he means...

When you open browser, it redirects from "http://google.com" to "http://www.google.com/"

Note: the "www." and the trailing "/"

But i changed the home page to http://www.gooogle.com/ and it does indeed load about twice as fast.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
you sure that its not just loading faster because its already cached???

the www. and the / should not matter when loading a webpage
[Captivate Android Development] Bigdog1:
What pattern unlock are u talking about? I just checked under settings and the pattern unlck is stlii there. I just set a pattern to verify that it works.
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
You know the great wifi that you have with Axura RC1? That is actually not true and it is rather a bug displaying incorrect wifi signal strength. RC2.2 fixes the bug, but I've noticed that it's off by 1 bar still. I don't really mind though but yes you are misled by the incorrect wifi signal.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
this kernel isnt configured for Overclocking OR undervolting, so how could you undervolt something that doesnt have it available in the kernel??[/QUOTE]

One thing anyone that wants OC/UV should keep in mind is that all it takes is disabling voodoo, quick download of the new kernel and install. Im gonna stick with this kernel for a bit annd see how it goes without oc/uv.

Can't make it perfect for everyone but the great thing about this message board is there is tons of info on how to tweak it yourself. Im looking forward to sticking with this kernel long enough to train the battery and see how it goes.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
I just cleared the cache and tried again, and i think it still does load a little better because it don't have to redirect.

Any redirect, even just redirecting to www., is still a redirect. By avoiding any redirect at all, the page will load a tad bit faster.

It may not be a huge improvement, but its still an improvement none the less.
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
Since I was getting 2-5 meter accuracy with what I was running before..20 meter accuracy isn't as good...that's why, and to fend off what I was running isn't available yet..Hopefully soon though.

Being able to undervolt what is on it now by some means will enable folks to adjust it to THEIR PHONE..get it..Not every phone is the same..not every one wants to OC their phone..and not using a app to allow for this is limiting the end user..Sure..I could flash a different kernel..but the question is why not offer a choice..since these roms are being done for different people with different needs...A take it or leave it attitude is rather strange...since Hans knows this fact.

Mac
[Captivate Android Development] ThWACkD:
Yeah, there's two different lock screen settings. When I thought it wasn't there, I was looking under Settings > Display > Unlock Screen, where the only options are Epic Unlock, Android Unlock, Glass Unlock, and Puzzle Unlock. However, if you go into Settings > Location and security > Change screen lock, Pattern Unlock exists.

Just a little confusion on my part. As mentioned in my edit, I'm still new to this whole Android thing. Still debating on whether to pull the SIM from my iPhone and drop it into the Captivate and switch over to android full time. Right now, I'm just using the SIM from a spare line from work, so I've got two separate phone numbers :)
[Captivate Android Development] hansmrtn:
Thanks everyone for helping! Bring on the questions :D
[Captivate Android Development] Bigdog1:
I am for stability 2 but I did not find anything unstable about 1.5. I flew thru menus and screens and NEVER had 1 hicup. Problems came when I installed set cpu. I just went bak and uninstalled and al was fine still clocking 0ver 1800 as per QS but also felt and saw speed difference. I noted most of the changelog from 1.5 to 2.1 and then to 2.2 was not fixing many bugs but adding things to make this the PERFECT rom. One major change was from seti to excal kernel.

Still love it all the way, just heve to do my own OCing to get it to match 1.5 speed.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
i dont think you quite understand.

you would HAVE to flash a new kernel if you want to undervolt. the app REQUIRES a kernel that supports it if you want to use it....if you flash a new kernel, then drop the app in and you can undervolt to your hearts desire...
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
I appreciate you work on this Hans...it has a lot of nice features...so my question is this

Why use a over clocked kernel that will not allow a person to UV it ?

What happened to being able to turn off wi-fi when the screen goes off...I looked every where on this and can't find it ?

Mac
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
this kernel IS NOT overclocked....how can you not comprehend that after pages upon pages of that being said??
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
I understand completely...see my question to Hans

im pretty sure the stock kernel is not overclocked, if u want OC/UV features just simply disable lag fix and install another kernel, thats what i did.

thats what i have been saying.

if you want to overclock OR undervolt, you have to flash a supported kernel......
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
The choice is offered but you actually have to do it yourself! It takes almost no time so I dont see the issue. Sometimes we users have to do things ourselves, Hans and Master do plenty and you cant beat the price...a beer is pretty cheap!
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Wow, I can feel the tension going on here right now...

Just to clarify things up:

- RC1 Had OC/UV.

- RC2.1 & 2.2 DOES NOT have OC/UV.

If you want to enable OC/UV on 2.1 or 2.2, you will need to flash a kernel that is compatible with overclock/undervolt.

Then you'll have to download & install the voltage app.

As for the wifi, it is still there, i just checked myself right now on RC 2.2, and its still there in the same place it has always been.

Hope that helps :)
