fix contacts app

im not able to edit contacts please fix thanks
[Captivate Android Development] NOSintake:
To those that are getting poor battery life, do you have wifi on? I noticed I was getting a pretty big battery drain with it on, but with it off, my battery was doing alright.

Here is my full post about it. Still waiting for an answer though
[Captivate Android Development] Kizzmiazz:
Plus one. I usally don't mess with my contacts to much but last night tried adding a couple and edit looked like it worked and when I go into contacts nothing there but my google contacts, any ideas ?

Sent from my SuperDuper!Captivate | AXURA Captivate Edition RC 2.2 With JL3 Modem | SetiroN's SuperOptimized v1.4.3 UV/OC @ 1280Mhz
[Captivate Android Development] Pralix:
Yes I have wifi on. Even with wifi on under the stock samsung rom, I was getting much more out of my battery. I am not willing to continually turn off wifi to improve what should already be in there.
[Captivate Android Development] upNsmokeAllDay:
I had a full charge at 11pm when i went to bed last night. Had gps and wifi off and the screen off with only twidroyd updating every hour and i lost 55% in 7 hours of no use at all. Started using the phone and it lasted maybe 2 hours before i got the plug battery in popup.
[Captivate Android Development] domin8:
i have been turning wifi off with the 2.2 because i have noticed a LITTLE quicker drain on mine, but i dont use the wifi that much to begin with. Wifi is supposed to be easier on battery than network data so i hope it gets sorted out since its becoming a more common complaint.
[Captivate Android Development] NOSintake:
Well yes, wifi is suppose to help, but that was just my take from it all. Flashed this weekend, set up wifi, and had pretty bad drainage. Came to work, and forgot to add the network, and my battery appeared untouched (this is all while idle mind you)
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
Try downloading OCLF and setting your WiFi timeout to something very low. i have mine at 14 seconds. this will turn off your WiFi when the phone enters sleep mode.
[Captivate Android Development] bsv109:
Love 2.2 even more than 2.1, but I have to flash back to 2.1 because the new email.apk is not dealing well with my companies' Exchange server. Could you add to the to do list for the next release to add an optional Email client?
[Captivate Android Development] Pralix:
Where do I change the scan time?
[Captivate Android Development] Falconary:
A question - Is there a easy way to install all applications directly from Titanium Backup without having to install and confirm each and every app? I had a lot of apps and i took me almost one hour to get through. Really annoying.
[Captivate Android Development] ribasje:
No voicemail, no gps
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
That's why there's a pro version :)
[Captivate Android Development] upNsmokeAllDay:
Mine installs everything automatically but i have the pro version and it might just be in pro. As much as i flash and backup and reapply then pro is so worth it. I also have the dropbox phone backup ability with pro also so its worth the 5.99 :D
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
I've been trying to narrow this down and looking at other kernels
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Have you tried the GPS or VM fix or just gotten google voice with visual voicemail?
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Where do you have your default contacts saved to?
[Captivate Android Development] ThWACkD:
VM fix? Do tell.

I've been reading through the thread for the past few days since 2.2 came out but have yet to see a working VM fix. Would love to get my VM indicator working without going to Google Voice for VM.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
I'd have to dig to find it.. involves the vm visual notifier.. will work w the cap's though. I have to say I far prefer google voice (especially the widget) to the dialer but everyones different. I'd suggest trying GV since it's free and can be tied to your current # now. I'll look for the vm fix.

Update: perhaps I was wrong but this is on page 282..

"I was having the same issue's with this rom and was able to fix it with an app called (t-mobile visual voicemail). Once installed launch it and you'll get a pop-up window saying something about t_mobile visual voice-mail is not active hit yes. another window opens with nothing on it let it run for a minute and close it. I did this about a week ago I've been testing it periodically and work every time. hope this helps."
[Captivate Android Development] gentaman:
Hey, does anyone know if update 2.2 improves the battery life? Although, love the axura roms to death, they have been a battery killer.
[Captivate Android Development] blazin619:
Where do you get the redsoul theme and the sense thing. Does sense come with the theme? How do you install? Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] dadams312:
anybody? please?!!?!

I am really liking this rom so far, very fast and very stable. Not of fan of the font used, and the gps is totally broke for me....my only drawbacks and neither is a deal breaker....good job.
[Captivate Android Development] spacecase-25:
Can you fix the music controls in the notification pull down? Theyre white on white....
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
You can change your font

You can fix your GPS
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
It's different for everyone. Mine seems better but I haven't been hammering on my phone much. I've always had cruddy battery life, always had to charge it before the end of the day.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
go here http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=703

click on captivate themes and apps and in the upper right use the search button and look for the red soul theme.. if you dont find it we can try again..

Good luck!!
[Captivate Android Development] dadams312:
I've looked at the options, but whatever the stock font is for android isn't available and i don't know where to get it.

And, I've tried the gps fixes that i know about with no luck.

Neither is a huge deal to me though, what is though is finding that stock voice recorder.
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
Good morning all. I have to admit that I've been seeing some pretty decent battery life since upgrading to 2.2. I can leave it unplugged over night with my wifi on and it only drops maybe 5-10% compared to the 20 or so it would drop on other roms. My only problem w/ the battery is that I cannot charge it when it is turned off, so I'm unable to calibrate this battery and that kinda bugs me. Other than that, I haven't had too many issues with this version.
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
I use wifi policy that shuts it off when the screen is off. The other day I left the phone in the car with GPS on (wifi off). Battery was at about 90%. I came back two hours later, and it was dead. Battery at zero.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Ok.. I see. I'm not sure where the stock android font is. I'd have to do a lot more digging. there is a font forum here http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=707 just search for it there.

There is a specific GPS fix, I'll see if I can find that and link it into this post as an edit.

*UPDATE* - do you have root explorer? If not it changes the way I respond..

I probably shouldnt say much about vm since I use GV (google voice).. I was way to used to iPhones visual voicemail to ever go back to entering a password lol.. anyone who knows more about that??
[Captivate Android Development] ri3tn:
I love this rom, but I noticed that my GPS was completely shot afterwards. I've never had any GPS problems really, and it's always worked fine for me, with a few mis-tracks every now and again, but with this rom (2.2) I just couldn't get it to lock no matter where I was.
[Captivate Android Development] Evilspawn:
i will be too...sad but i too will have to flash another rom because i need it to last me atleast till im out of work..if i had access to a charger then fine but im always walking around the store and customers would steal it!:(
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
do you have root explorer? If not it changes the way I respond..
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
This one is from a Perception ROM, copy the file to your /system/app/ folder and it will be available
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Thanks tsachi.. any chance we can get this on the main page along with the 2 gps fix solutions? one is by Adam on page 274.. I don't know where the supl.google.com port 2576 one is(I think those #'s are right)
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Also I noticed you, (I think adam and even hans) are still ROM: Axura 2.1 - Kernel: setiron v1.4.3 - Modem: JK4 - Launcher: Zeam(or other choice for this one)..

any reason? Thoughts on JL3?
[Captivate Android Development] Chargerdude70:
Which do we use...updates only show good to RC1...someone else on here is using on 2.2....does it matter if I'm on 2.1? What dictates compatibility...rom?...kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
2.1 works great for me and I didn't have time this weekend to flash 2.2. Now I figured I'll just wait for 2.3. :) As for modem, forgot to update my signature. I have been using JL3 almost since it was leaked and it works great for me. GPS in jm9 was still the best for me, but call quality with JL3 is excellent.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
where do you see anything sense?
[Captivate Android Development] pmd5700:
Is anyone getting reports from people you call about sounding distorted? I was talking to my girlfriend and she said for the past 2 days (flashed Axura 2 days ago) I've sounded kind of "distorted".
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
The Nexus One wasn't immediately available for AT&T either... was it? :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] The_Zodiac:
just a heads up i recommend not installing "application protection" from the market, somehow my phone force restarted itself earlier today and got stuck in a restarting loop.

not sure if its just that app; or the combination of that app and this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] TexUs:
Can anyone tell me the basic pros/cons of the Cognition, Perception, and Axura ROMs??? I haven't been keeping up with this at all.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Hmm.. thanks for the update.. I may try jl3.. shouldn't be a problem w 2.2 as far as I'm hearing. (correct me if I'm wrong)

Thanks,
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
DG is about to throw together a build 3 of something to replace perception, probably cog as well. Assonance seems to be the most stable after reading 100's of threads this am. Hans is apparently having surgery on his knee and wont be doing dev work for a little bit but a 2.3 is forecasted to launch possibly wednesday of this week. I read on other roms but didn't figure it was worth posting those details because I read too many negative reviews (good ones too but equal to the negative ones found in here.. I was looking to see which rom, kernel, modem had the best reviews)

To above said that is only from what I read in forums.. Hans & DG have not contacted me. I am not a dev and just have done a lot of reading and research.. I need to do a lot more..
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I an on jl3. Earlier I thought it was having issues but there was a tower down in my area. Best I can tell it is better then jk4
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
It's not avail now either .. unless you buy it unlocked :)
[Captivate Android Development] schtuka:
The GPS supl settings has been covered in many GPS threads. So is the fact that Axura rom was most successfull with JM9 gps fix and possibly Jupiter 006 from CLShortFuse thread. I was trying different fixes and seems that JM9 is the better one for Axura R1. Not as good as my experience with Tayutama's JPM rom, but close. Should be same result for new Axura, but I would't know since I am fine with R1.

I also flashed the newer TL modem and GPS seems to be fine as it can be.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
As long as you disable voodoo (I believe) before flashing the theme you should be ok.. someone correct me if I'm wrong.. pretty sure I'm not but I can handle it if I am.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
May need a multi-quote on this one.. I'm not the original one asking the ?.. Mines workin' good !! :) (unless someone can tell me how to get accurate indoor locks)
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
That's what I was reading earlier, that the JL3 is having better reviews across the different ROM threads.. Just not QUITE ready to do it yet..
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Another ROM that is pretty stable is Darky's CE. It has excellent GPS and a nice UI. I still choose Axura though. Just testing this to see what he did to get the GPS better than even I could. His accuracy is constantly 5 meters where I could only get a constant of 10 meters.
[Captivate Android Development] Rundemc:
hhhmmm when flashing back to stock before i then load AXURA i seem to get hung up on master clear i just left it running for two hours and nothing but when i try just to flash it that works fine... wonder why it hates me... about to install anyway and hope it works out fine...
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
The JM9 files are the best. They are what I use. I recently reverted back to 2.1 as I was able to tweak the GPS to get good results where I could not get it just right on 2.2..
[Captivate Android Development] TexUs:
So am I reading that DG is still the king, and Build 3 is the next great thing?

Back about a month ago (last time I checked anything) Cognition was unrivaled but now there seems to be four:

Cognition

Auxura

Perception

Assonance

I want speed, stability. What's what?

That said my GPS on the 11/18 Cognition still sucks monkey a$$...
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Mind updating your Sig? I'd be curious to see the specs if that's cool. I also did quite a bit of searching to see what bands (I'm 99% sure only 1 in my area) are in my area and I think its 1900 only so I really don't need a 850 although if it rolls to 1900 by default that's fine.
[Captivate Android Development] sifulee:
Can someone post the JM9 files and how to go about installing them.

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
I wouldn't say DG is king .. each device (per user) seems to have it's own quirks after reading, reading and reading a lot more. I'm betting a reasonable amount of it is user input (UI) although additionally different SGS Cap models 1006, 1007, 1008 probably have slightly different hardware tooling. On top of that if you dont do a master clear, do a TiBu data back up, you're carrying junk along that will cause issues with a new rom. Personally I MC'd (master cleared) and sd formatted 2x before 2.2 and yet my gps didnt work. I went in and changed them in the sgs tools following a tutorial in this thread somewhere and now it works. As good as 2.1? no.. but really good. You should be able to fix your GPS on Cog as well. I know you change the server to supl.google.com and the port to something else.. Hoping we cna get that posted on the first page. Adam's suggestion which could work for you possibly is on page 174 of this thread. He can correct me if that will work on DG's roms.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=863776&page=174
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Here they are. Just flash with CWM.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
You are correct. supl.google.com and it is port 7276 with a deletion of GPS data after that. This will work on DG's Cognadian Bacon but will not work on Assonance.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I would update my sig but I am only testing Darky's CE. I am an Axura user for life. I am running stock Darky's CE, no tweaks of any kind. Came done with supl.google.com and 727 pre configured.

here is the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=868262.

Just click the link at the top for Darky's CE. I do recommend staying with Axura though. I am only testing this out and will not help support it. I am loyal to Axura! So don't ask any questions about Darky's.
[Captivate Android Development] Falconary:
What does those files do?
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Lol.. so I guess I need a lesson in roms and need to read.. to me the rom seems not much more of an interface to the kernel (ROM = UI more or less which can be themed in any which way) ..
[Captivate Android Development] TexUs:
So is Axura just as fast as Cog or Perception (Haven't tried Perception, assuming since DG makes it it's similar)?
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Files to allow a functioning (very well) GPS.. see page 174 of this thread for instructions on how to apply OR flash with CWR
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
They are the original files I passed on to Hans to get the GPS working on 2.1.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Well.. all I can say is give it a try. My buddy who sits across from me is on perception and on 2.1 (axura) I blew him away because I was overclocked.. I'm on 2.2 with the stock lagfixes and slightly ahead of him but we're splitting hairs.. when I was on 2.3v6 it was slower than this.. I'd try out AdamH's set up, the i9k modem, jm9 gps, Axura Rom (if you prefer that rom.. if not search out one that works with these specs) and 1.4.3 modem with lagfixes enabled.. you can always go 1.4.5 but will have stability issues as I can attest. to that.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Yes and no. There are a few tweaks that can prove to be useful to port over in some instances such as the GPS files in Darky's which I intend on porting to Axura with Han's permission. they will compliment our current files very well.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
That is a hard question. Speed depends on how you use it. I flashed nearly every cog and several perceptions. My opinion, faster then cog, slightly slower then perception. More stable then perception, does not need overclock to obtain speed
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
I switch between ROMs pretty frequently and unless you are doing something weird like trying to get a hefty over clock they are all stable and good.

Most of the differences lie in the user interface and what the developer decided to pair together - all things you can decide to pair together differently.

For instance - I got a terrible voodoo internal SD card corruption on Perception which was resistant to fixing - after I re-installed I just swapped in SetiroN's kernel... so that pretty much renders my criticism of DG's decision to use that voodoo version moot right? Theres no reason why I *have* to use Voodoo with Perception.

With the exception of talking about base versions (like JPU, JK2, etc.) I never really understood the talk about which ROM was better.

Unless of course you don't really like posting in a particular forum cause there's flaming.

you're talking about Ferrari's and Lamborghini's
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
+1 This explains it better than I did
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
I understand, thanks for the reply. :D
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
I smiled when I saw this and hope ya didn't think I was flaming.. if so I need to change something :)
[Captivate Android Development] TexUs:
I guess it also seems Cog has the kernel all wrapped up nice and easy whereas on Axura I'm going to have to do some research on what kernel I want to use, etc.

Good. If it's faster than Cog I'll be happy as Cog is very fast.

Alright, so what I'm hearing is that excellent Captivate ROMs are now plentiful... Fantastic!

Axura seems to be the consensus... Speed+Pretty.

My questions are, what kernels do you all use with it? Just the stock 2.1 kernel? You've got to be kidding me if so! 2.2 seemed so much better.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
this is a really popular combination

Axura RC2.1 w/ SetiroN's 1.4.3 w/kernel tweaks+ext4 lagfix!
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
That looks an awful lot like my sig;)
[Captivate Android Development] comdei:
Im still having some slight battery problems. I do remember accidently not waiting 10 mind to let voodoo work. So could this be why I get bad battery. I can literally watch the battery go

down
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
What do you mean not letting voodoo work? Did you stop it mid process? If so you need to reflash. No ifs, ands or buts about that.
[Captivate Android Development] comdei:
No I didn't let my phone sit for ten after voodoo worked do I need to rrflash my battery just drained from 80 to 74 in a few minutes
[Captivate Android Development] beerbaronstatic:
the tweaks i always see referred in your sig, are those the tweaks you can enable in cwm?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
you don't need to let it sit for 10 mins after voodoo completes. Once the phone boots for the first time you are good to go. Just turn off your phone, charge it to 100%, turn it on, go into sgs tools>apply script>delete battery stats and enjoy.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Sure are. :)
[Captivate Android Development] TexUs:
With Cognition it seems it's already been patched with Voodoo whereas what I'm seeing folks using in Axura is UCLF.

Are there any Voodoo'd kernels or is this something that exists in the ROM? I'm not a dev and it's been months (since Cog has come out all in one) that I've had to mess with this stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] beerbaronstatic:
do you enable all 4 of the tweaks? do you have to do anything else after enabling them?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
If you flash this rom the package had a voodoo kernel. the people with ulk, have flaked another kernel
[Captivate Android Development] renden:
the ext2 loops under ULF work too, thats why I haven't upgraded to the 2.x versions. Doesn't have it.
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
Would any of these lagfix tricks help w/ being able to charge while the phone is off??
[Captivate Android Development] hansonmi:
Hans,

I know you got a lot on your plate right now and other resquests are probably more important, but you could you please look into allowing us to change the Voicemail phone number in Settings > Call Settings > Voicemail ?

It has entries for "My Carrier" and "Google Voice" but it will not allow them to be edited at all.

I know we can create a new "Voicemail" contact and use that instead, so that is why i said this is probably not as important as other requests like using a different kernel or modem...

Thanks.

This ROM is the best that i have used and I will keep using it.

Keep up the good work and hoping a speedy and good recovery from your surgery.
[Captivate Android Development] TexUs:
What's ulk?

And OK, I did some more research on VooDoo and it just seems it's a bit better version of the lag fix. I thought it was more than that.

Hopefully I can give this a shot tonight.

Edit- alright, been awhile since I've had to use Odin to kernel flash or anything...

Obviously I'll one-click it back to stock and Master Clear it.

I take SetiroN's kernel in the PDA box, correct? Toet the new kernel over, and then install the Axura with CWM?
[Captivate Android Development] rwj5279955:
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but does this ROM screw up the device I.D like a couple others I saw?

I want to flash tonight, last question I really didn't see an answer to.

Btw, you guys are brilliant!!
