[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] teo74:
I consistently got around 1800-1900 in Quadrant, 14 mflops in linpack and 55,7 fps in Neocore.

Lagfix installed, of course, all ext4 with ext2 loops, no bind.

Kernel @256.

But today it suddenly booted to a black screen with vibrations (not a good sign! not that I am not used to it, though). ;)

It's a sign that it's time to flash something new!

I guess I might as well try their new Denavil ROM because it really looks cool.

See you there!

May I suggest you put a better looking and updated version of Genie Widget in your ROMs? I personally like the smoked version with black & white icons.

can i flash with recovery only the theme part? (if i could, should i lose any data?)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adam1422:
I know its a personal preference but this is my first flashing of a rom and I did all my homework and am ready to go, now I just need to find out what is the best SenseUI rom and kernel to flash. I would like the best battery life possible as I only get about 5-6 hours with moderate to heavy use. I am running the stock rom with one of toasts kernels. Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks in Advance!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sekigah84:
It seems to be a hit or miss. Some kernels/ROMs work better for others and crappy for the rest.

netarchy's Kernels work well for me. I'm using the CFS beta kernel right now. If you are confused as to what CFS and BFS are, there are a few places that tell you what it is. Basically CFS is consistent but not as fast, BFS can be faster but it can also lag at times ie: inconsistent.

I personally flash the rooted 3.30 Deodexed ROM and then head over the Themes forum and tweak the UI to make it look different.

Also if you are going to be doing a LOT of testing, I would highly recommend that you flash the 4 in 1 Reboot Menu

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=823137

There are also optimized ROMs out there that are good for some users and bad for others. Check out Ava's Froyo v10 ROM.

My suggestion: once you find a good working ROM + Kernel combo for battery life. STICK WITH IT lol. I made that mistake many times.

And don't forget to NANDROID back up ALWAYS.

I had various times that screen. If you connect the TAB to PC and ODIN you should be able to flash a ROM and restart. Look also to an old thread regarding bricked TAB

This is just another recovery screen. What this mode means is basically, "now you have to flash something on me to get out of it". I have taking my tablet to places I never thought I could and was able to recover. As long as you have a dump with all your partitions then you can always restore.

I have the MT4g and i want to stop facebook from syncing the damn freaking bdays with my calendar. I'm trying to use my calendar for USEFUL information and things I have to do but instead the entire agenda is plastered with birthdays of people I don't even know/care about. How do I make it so this facebook bday is NOT synced with my calendar widget. I'm specifically using and talking about the launcher pro widget for calendar and theres no settings I can see. I love the layout and the switch between the agenda and calendar wide view, but damn, extremely annoying.

[Epic 4G General] bdf:
In about phone, my base band is S:D700.0.5S.DK17

Why?

I have installed 2 DK28 ROMs without issue as well...

Well now im getting reboots on texts.

any ideas?
[Epic 4G General] odub303:
Because the modem flash failed, even though it said it didn't. Flash the DK28 modem using Odin again.
[Epic 4G General] bdf:

Redownload the modem. From different sources.

Sent from my Venomous Viper of an Epic in the Mile High City
[Epic 4G General] bdf:
I tried that, as well as the other options if it failed (which it never does).

Still DK17.

Try using going to DI18 with Odin, then using Firon's flashable dk28 to update. This is the original thread.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Try posting in the right section. Thanks
[Epic 4G General] bdf:
Sorry, I assumed this would be a dev issue.

In any case, nothing seems to work. I tried the above, when I took it back to stock configuration it still said DK17, and still does.

Everything seems to work OK, GPS, 4g, 3g phone data, everything.

What would this be affecting and are there any other things I can to to solve this?

Thanks,

[Epic 4G General] jok3sta:
This happened with me as well. And this isn't my first time flashing a modem so i know I did it right. I've ran several dk28 roms already and everything works perfectly including gps. Im leaving it as it is.

[General Topics] ibroyles:
I don't know about that. I've been reading stuff like that too, but it all seems to be conjecture.

He specifically said in the video that Honeycomb was designed with an API to interface with both phones and tablets. Then he explicitly elaborates more on the subject of how the API is designed. So I think the premature conjecture of Honeycomb for tablets can be put to rest now.

Hey all, since I've started using Axura and Assonance I've have random total service drops that stick until a reboot. I've flashed both jpp and jpm modems and get the same eventual result. Also, in the network control section of the service menu I've tried to use only 1900 bands then only 850 bands--still same crap. Anyone have any ideas??? Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdbeitz:
I had some bad service/no service issues at first. Try a master clear, stock reinstall of perception. It has the hspa modem. Works great and solved all my problems!

hey jd, thanks for the reply. yeah i flashed stock and master cleared last night but still no dice. weird stuff man...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
I've had the same issues. I found that going into service mode and changing network control to wcdma 1900 only helped. I think it has to do with band switching.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdbeitz:
Hmmm... Try a odin flash of a modem... if that doesnt help, go stock and go visit att lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nedryerson:
I am having the exact same issue. I have tried several roms and modems with no luck. I called at&t tech support, they had me flash back to stock and then they did some magic push to my phone to try and fix the issue. It worked great for a couple weeks, but who wants stock? So I tried to flash everything again and now I'm back to the same random no service issue until I reboot. Gonna flash back to stock again tomorrow to see if that fixes it again. Let me know if you make any progress with this issue!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:
I've found one of my brothers! :) I've seen others who have the issue in various i9000 rom threads for the captivate but never a definitive answer. So weird, did you happen to get your phone near launch day? Or do you live near Dallas, TX? Grabbing at straws here...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcaliburinhand:
I would recommend the same, have seen funky modem issues in the past that were resolved by re-flashing the modem only (using odin not an update.zip).

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keener31:
chiming in from a similar thread that was in development but got moved over here.

i can confirm that for me it seems to be in connection with the phone jumping between 3G and H (i believe i am inbetween towers where i live). i also have a day 1 captivate, but i live in southern NJ.

i have 2 questions:

1) i just odin'ed back to stock. i am trying to do a master clear as well, for good measure. however, i start the master clear and it either stops after a sliver of progress, or after about 20% progress. doesnt appear the phone is doing anything and odin just sits there. i let it run the first time for about 20 mins, didnt go past 20%. - any idea on why this is or what i can do to get a full master clear?

2) i believe i will be flashing over to perception 8. once that is done, id like to re-flash the modem only. would anyone be able to point me to how that is done? i can get the modem.bin from the modem thread, but i wasnt sure if it was just a matter of picking that file in odin and hitting go, or if it was a little more sensitive.

thanks for the help and reading. glad im not the only one in limbo with this issue!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:
1. Make sure you aren't in DL mode if you're master clearing.

2. You need the full version of odin (3.0 I think) and put the modem.bin in the phone section (you'll see once you get odin 3.0). But again, I've flashed jpp and jpm and it didn't work for me
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keener31:
got it. thanks.

at this point im willing to try it if for some reason it has worked for others.

im wondering why this problem occurs after a while. some kind of cache filling up? ATT's network rejecting the phone?

bleh.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:
yeah it's really weird. for me it will sometimes happen within 20 minutes of a reboot and being in the same location. other times i'll have service for a few hours. best of luck with the modem and let me know how it turns out!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nedryerson:
Here is what I did today:

Restored back to JF6 using the Odin 1 click application

Did a Master Clear using the Odin 1 click application

Rooted using the one-click root app

Installed CWM and flashed Perception Build 8

So far I haven't had the no reception issue, but sometimes it seems to work normally for a while then just starts having problems constantly. I'll post back if I do start having problems, but this is the most promising attempt so far. I also did a bunch of other stuff prior to restoring back to JF6, tried flashing several modems and ROMs, but nothing was really helping. I think that odin restore clears everything completely, so hopefully nothing I did prior to that was actually required to make things work.

Here are a couple of things I ran across while I was trying to get this all working, some I tried, some I didn't, but different people said these helped them so I wanted to list them here in case they are useful.

Do not have your phone plugged in to USB when you flash the ROM with CWM. People mentioned this messing up their flash, but it didn't seem to affect mine.

Some people did not have any data signal at all right after flashing Perception, they had to enable/disable airplane mode before anything started working.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my phone will actually keep working this time. Unfortunately, it sounds like some of you have already tried basically the same steps I did and haven't had any luck so this post may not be incredibly helpful to everyone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keener31:
i definitely appreciate the information and post. the more we discuss it the better the odds of coming up with a solution are.

i just did the same as you (odin to stock, cwm to percp.8) - i will also post back with findings.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nedryerson:
Well, I just got my first "no reception" issue after flashing to Perception 8. I wish there was a better way for me to troubleshoot exactly what causes this issue. One thing I have noticed is that once i lose reception, I can't even enable airplane mode. It just kind of hangs trying to do it, and then if I shut my phone off and turn it back on it is in airplane mode.

Is there anything useful I can do, like check logs, to try and find out more technical details on what exactly is happening?

I'm going to keep running Perception 8 for now and see what happens.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keener31:
i had mine on the charger all night, no charger death.

hasnt dropped network yet, but i suppose i should be expecting it to now.

mine will do the same thing with airplane mode. it will also lock up going into most of the options in the mobile networks settings. wifi will work at the start, but just before last flash i noticed even wifi started to fail. the menu stalls or FC's, and using the power control button lights up, no icon shows, then it eventually goes out.

i would be more than willing to post logs, etc, but they need to be read by someone that can do something with them... that is why issues like this are better placed in development - but then other posters make a stink about it not being the right forum.

i dont know that we will get any actual help in here aside from our own anecdotal results.

to try: lock your phone onto 1900 or 850 mode and see if that helps? i really do believe it is the constant swapping of radios or modes that is doing it.

is there an i9000 radio that doesnt do HSUPA/HSDPA? one that is locked on 3G? id be willing to try that. or an app that locks it into 3G... but unfortunately i dont know of such a thing. makes me wonder why the 2G/3G toggle just didnt turn into a 2G/3G/H toggle.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:
I agree that Q&A gets very little traffic compared with the dev forum but I believe so long as we keep this topic alive and PM dev's we will get an answer. They will eventually either fix the problem or say 'because of xyz you guys are screwed'. But we will get an answer.

Hey guys, just flashed the jk4 modem. Everything seems to work but we'll see for how long ;)

Edit: No Service strikes again (:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nedryerson:
I've gotten "no service" several times today, I'm trying to pinpoint the exact times it happens and capturing the logs for those time periods in case they are useful. I am not sure how to lock the radio to either 1900 or 850 band, but I did set the network mode to WCDMA only to see if that makes any difference.

Also, just to add more info here, I have a MicroCell tower here at my house, but the issue seems to happen regardless of whether I'm connected to it, or just on normal service.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:
to select only 1900 or 850 go into service mode by dialing #*0011#. hit the back softkey and go: phone control -> network control -> band selection.

I've selected only 1900 band and let it run for about a day. I'm still getting intermittent "no service". I have been capturing logs, and will try to single out only the appropriate sections of them and post them up. Maybe somebody who knows what they are doing will be able to look at them.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:
not sure how you're doing, but flashing the jj4 modem appears to have fixed the issue for me. i haven't had to reboot for 8 hours--since the problem started i usually would have to reboot every couple hours if not sooner. just fyi, i'm also running assonance 3.1. i might be celebrating to early but heck this is much better than before :cool:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Been running Cog b7 for the last 48 hours or so with the jj4 modem flashed and have Not had the no service issue.

Just an fyi.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setk:
FIX: Get your phone exchanged.

I've been struggling these issues for a while:

1. random no service (toggling flight mode fix this sometimes, reboot is required at other times).

2. randomly enters flight mode and will not turn off flight mode.

3. no service, enters flight mode after charging ( I believe when battery is charged to 100% this problem manifest).

On my captivate(purchased 1st week of release) #3 is consistently reproducible.

I've tried AUXRA, Perception, Assonance, Killer23d's Doc Froyo. It seems to me that anything with JK3/JK4 modem causes these issues.

I researched this issue for hours/days/weeks and found that no one has found a real answer. Some have suggested it may be an issue with bouncing between 1900 and 850. I tried using just one or the other. That didn't help. Someone thought it might be an issue with earlier captivates, but someone else claims that they have the problem with a recently purchased unit.

In any case, since I ran out of things to try, just on a hunch I had my captivate exchanged at the AT&T Device Support Center. Voila!!! That fixed all my issues. I have non of the issues I've been experiencing. I'm able to charge overnight without any issues. I'm happily running AUXRA CE RC 2.2 (this one has the JK4 modem) now.

So... if you're having the issues I listed above, get your phone replaced. I cannot verify if these issues affect only early Captivates, but in my particular case, it definitely appears to be hardware related.

If you try this and can verify that replacing the phone works, please post a reply. Hopefully, we can save others some time and put this one behind us.

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keener31:
@setk: interesting to hear about the phone exchange! did you flash back to stock first? and what did you tell them to get it replaced?

ive been running P8 with JK3. i went away this weekend and on saturday it started dropping service again.

@derek/bobby: good to hear. since i know jk3 isnt working, ill flash over JJ4 and see how that goes as well.

im glad people are coming together on this, even if its still pretty ambiguous.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derek_h77:
careful with the jj4 modem (was running assonance 3.1). things were fine until i missed a call. after i tried to check the missed call my phone went into a boot loop. now i'm trying cog2.2b7 as-is...

did you flash the modem with the update.zip (with the redbend_ua) or via odin?

i keep reading its best to do it via odin.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setk:
Yes. I flash back via odin one-click to JF6 and then master clear prior to flashing a ROM each time.

I told them the phone has signal issues. I told them it goes into "No Service" from 4 bars while it's stationary in a location known to have good coverage. (ie. other AT&T phones have good signal.)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setk:
As I mentioned in my other reply...

I told them the phone has signal issues. I told them it goes into "No Service" from 4 bars while it's stationary in a location known to have good coverage. (ie. other AT&T phones have good signal.)

However, I did not volunteer the fact that I was running ROMs other than stock. I figured it was a moot point since there are many folks here running the same ROM that I was running without any issue. The only difference is the hardware.

I first called the AT&T Device Support Center and described the signal issues I was having(I did not mention the flight mode problem). I asked them what my options were. Phone exchange was a possible option if there was an actual issue with the radio in the phone. I was told they can actually look at your account to see if you do get dropped signals.

Maybe I was lucky... I just thought it might be helpful to someone here...
