So I flashed your zip but I can't find how to get into the LBStestmode to be able to change the settings. I have tried *#*#1472365#*#* and that doesn't work. Thanks for your help
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
There's always odin..
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
I'm feeling pretty stupid at the moment. I've installed RC2.1 but it didn't seem to install anything but the standard froyo kernel. Is this the default or have I missed something?
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
I realize RC1 is last week's version, it already has the 1.4.3 1200 kernel already... no need to flash it... now you need to re-enable your lagfix via CWRecovery>AdvanceULN

RC2.1 is the most current...

Under Settings>About, it's always going to say 2.6.32.9
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Use the SGS tools app. Go to SGS tools>Secret Codes>GPS
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Why do you think you only have the standard Froyo kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Update

Adam,

Speeds are significantly slower for me dl on jk4. Uploads are about the same.

Thoughts?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
It installed excaliburs kernel it just doesn't update the about screen. Even if you flash a different kernel it will not update it.
[Captivate Android Development] Nodnarb1974:
Awesome. Thanks. I will follow what you said and then go outside and test it out and report back. Thanks again for all your help
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
That is odd. I think you are the first to say that. Most results have been either very close to the same if not better like in my case and a few others.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Reboot one more time and re-run speedtest.net please. Let me know.
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
I wish I could download it to my computer but I'm at work and the government frowns upon such things.

Thank you..

[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
I know.. I saw.. I was getting between (indoor) 1500-2000 dl.. again ul is unchanged.. Using Speedtest.net app

What is the modem that came with this and is it on the main page for dl? I can always put it on the sd and flash it back later if I have issues.

Also, Nick, just to tac on here.. that voltage app is not saving that file to that folder. I have no idea why.. just trying to see if I can actually get it to stay there & find that file (using RE).
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
I tried telling you earlier... :(

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9725584&postcount=1516
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Did you install Voltage App? ...or was it installed with the ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
It came with this rom from the looks of it..
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
I have standard recovery and can't enable lagfixes.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Do you have Rom Manager installed?
[Captivate Android Development] Nodnarb1974:
So it locks on now. Still jumps around a bit but I will test it out more later. Thanks again for the help.
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
no but I do have the CWM update zip on my sdcard
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Indoors or outdoors? (or both)
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
That just means you aren't using SetiroN's kernel... Excalibur's kernel (that comes in RC2.1) doesn't have advanceULN options in recovery. It has Voodoo lagfix enabled by default... check your internal sdcard for a folder called Voodoo to confirm.
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
Nevermind Stupid Gunnyman is stupid
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
LOL... unaware or confused... not stupid
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
I didn't flash the attached update.zip :D
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Think I should uninstall voltage app and reinstall?

Know where I can get the modem that came with this rom vs jk4? I want to play with it at home on wifi a tad, google seems to come up uber fast (doesnt *seem* slower even though it clocks slower on speedtest.net app)
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
Ok I have the setiron kernel as evidenced by the GT I9000 boot screen but when I reboot to recovery I get the standard Captivate recovery not the modified CWM
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
I got GT i9000 boot screen even when I was on excalibur's Kernel...

Run Quadrant and post your scores... that will tell us what kernel you're on.

Scores around 1100 = Excalibur/Voodoo

Scores around 1500+ = SetiroN/Ext4

But if all you have flashed is RC2.1, I guarentee you are on Excalibur's

App is Quadrant Standard from the Market, if you don't already have it.
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
/facepalm. All is well. I haz a stoopid. Voodoo directory is there and the logs say everything is good.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
No worries Gunnyman.. you're doing fine. We're here to support each other. Ask away and someone will usually reply (nicely ;) )
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
Quadrant is low at 1071, so maybe all is NOT well
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
You could flash the 1.4.3 kernel.. Quite a few people are using that over xcal's that came with this rom.. Quadrant isn't something you want to rely on, I'd say linpack is a better guage.. plus just using it to tell you how fast you're running. I can tell (sits directly across from me) my buddy's cogv7 rom is slower than what I'm using..
[Captivate Android Development] beerbaronstatic:
Has anyone tried flashing any of xcal's non voodoo kernels? if so, how was performance?
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Have you read my posts??? That is what Quadrant should be ~1100 if you are on Excalibur's kernel using Voodoo...
[Captivate Android Development] gunnyman:
I'm happy with the speed and stability of this build I am not messing with it. :D
[Captivate Android Development] jnicholaou:
Pulldown Settings widget

First of all, GREAT ROM! This rom finally made me convert from my nexus one to my wifes old captivate, loving it so far.

I have been trying to find a way to change which settings are in the pulldown notification bar widget. I think I've looked through every setting on the phone and tried every "power control" type widget in the market. Anyone have any suggestions? On the nexus one there is an option in the "cyanogen mod" settings, but this isn't a cyanogen mod, so ya. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
I know, right... I never listen to anything that makes sense lol. I will for now on though.

aww man...mine is 1106 :(
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Isn't that what we were just helping you do lol?? That is significantly slower than what I (or many others) are getting.. which is why in the next build it'll probably be Setiron's 1.4.x build.. it's noticeably faster. You can always oc/uv your rom.
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Did you re-enable lagfixes after you disabled them earlier?

CWRecovery>AdvancesULK>Lagfix Options>Use NO-RFS advanced (a=e4)

After that, you should see...

DATA_FS=ext4

CACHE_FS=ext4

DBDATA_FS=ext4
[Captivate Android Development] Nodnarb1974:
Both but indoors it's about a block off.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
My Quadrant?

1500+
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Nice.. I cant get a lock indoors.. at least not at work. Glad to hear its working better.
[Captivate Android Development] Nodnarb1974:
Thanks for the help :)
[Captivate Android Development] Boobie Watcher:
im getting like 1900 quadrant score with setiron's 1.4.3
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
Ummmm...hypothetically Which one of the options is best if I did not re-enable said lagfix?
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
really.. nice.. what are your oc/uv settings (using axura I assume), lagfixes, tweaks and are you using bfq, noop or what?
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
CWRecovery>AdvancedVLK>Lagfix Options>Use NO-RFS advanced (a=e4)

After that, you should see...

DATA_FS=ext4

CACHE_FS=ext4

DBDATA_FS=ext4

Then it will ask about config's changing; select the first option (blah, blah w/backup & restore) can't remember exact verbage.

Then sit through a long reboot... Once it boots, try Quadrant again.
[Captivate Android Development] Boobie Watcher:
man i just disabled the voodoo, flashed the setiron's 1.4.3 and enabled the lagfix (a=e4)

thats all ive done and its just smokin fast dude
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:

w00T!!!! that worked...hypothetically of course :p

Seriously though thank you!

Quadrant says 1806
[Captivate Android Development] crupp:
Which version of 1.4.3 are people using. there seems to be 3-4 iterations?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Cool... now update your sig ;)
[Captivate Android Development] philly fan:
So there is a 2.2a coming out, skipping 2.2 presume? Was there a timeframe? I was about to flash but if it's soon I will just wait.
[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
Lagfix

Lagfix was not automatically installed. How do I enable it now, it is not an option in clobckwk recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] rockettman:
He didn't give a timeframe but he did say that he hoped it to be an update to 2.1 and not a total wipe. Not sure if it will contain the entire ROM or just the update script.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
If the flash was successful it was enabled. Look in your files folder and you should see a voodoo folder.
[Captivate Android Development] rockettman:
How do you know it wasn't enabled? If you go into the voodoo folder you should see logs. If you do, then chances are it is enabled.

Proxy

Morning Adam,

Thanks for the reply. It's blocked through the company Firewall. I'd have to download it to my phone from DB or an alternate link that I can access. I'm able to access Cog ROMs but who wants those anyways ;p..

I have everything else already.. the last AXURA ROM I had to have a buddy UL it to my DB (I forgot but now remember). I spose this is probably an isolated problem but figured I'd try. No PC at home so it's not like I can do it there :(.

Thanks for the reply,

[Captivate Android Development] philly fan:
Ok just one more question sorry to be a pain. Is the update for cosmetic reasons or to fix a bug found. I am not seeing it in the TL but I am sure I missed it somewhere.
[Captivate Android Development] lolgrec:

so can anyone point me in the direction or possibly PM me how to flash stock through Heimdall? i screwed something up and am not able to get to a PC right away (and cause i'm an idiot)

Thanks for the Reply Mac,

I DL and Astro. I tried to point the back up folder to my External SD but it wouldn't allow it, so, I did a back up first then moved the folder manually. Soon as I can get the DL (it's blocked at work, no pc @ hm.. trying to figure out how to get it UL to my dropbox acct.. too bad I can't just dl it from my mobile browser!!) I'll Odinify (too cheesy??) my phone including MC.

Thanks!!

Stock

Do you have the rom on your SD (or external sd) card?
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
What makes you think that? Lagfix was installed by default for mine.

It looks like no HSUPA with this rom. Upload speeds are down.

[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Considering throwing Serions kernel 1.5 whatever on....anyone done so or know the advantages or disadvantages of doing so? I do not see a "problem" I just like the option to UV.
[Captivate Android Development] rockettman:
Quadrant is bogus score based mainly on how your systems are partitioned (afaik). Not accurate benchmarking. Voltage control is not supported because you do not have an OC'd kernel. The stock kernel is 1000mhz so there is no need to UV a stock kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Quadrant means nothing! How does your phone feel? It is fast as hell for me. Quadrant was not developed to be a measuring tool for the Captivate. Quit using it.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Only advantage if you think it is is the ability to OC//UV. That is it.
[Captivate Android Development] qwertyaas:
If I am at stock JH7, I'm good to go after master clear? Or I have to flash back to JF6?

Additionally, as I haven't rooted as of yet and want to back up via Titanium, I should root first, back up then...? Flash to from my 'stock' JH7?

Thanks for helping this root 'noob'!

The ROM is good fast and very stable. I just flashed to RC 2.1 from RC 1.5 and noticed that result from Quadrant si showinf a big slow down in speed.

In 2.1 I get about 1350, while in 1.5 (which I just flashed back to) I am now looking at 1821 on my Samsung Cappy. Anyone else seeing anything like this?

trying to look at change log and see if I really need to move to 2.1.

This one in particular...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9724509&postcount=1460

You can wait until this evening when Hans releases 2.2... or you could flash 2.1 + SetiroN's 1.4.3 kernel and have your higher quad scores... Even with Xcalibur's kernel w/voodoo lagfix, this ROM is fast and stable; regardless of what Quadrant says...
[Captivate Android Development] AlsoNamedBort:
It's alive... ALIVE!

I'm back, baby!!

SparkFun was very helpful and shipped my micro-USB breakout board the same day, so with the overnight shipping it arrived at my door this afternoon. I spent a half-hour or so soldering up my resistor pack (ended up with five resistors since they were 5% tolerance and I had to make up 6 kOhms when all was said and done.) Plugged it into my brick and voila, Download Mode!

So right now I'm flashed back to stock, and I'm charging it up (lost 20% of the battery with all this futzing about.) Once that's done, I'll be loading up this Axe-Yoo-Rah thing I keep hearing everyone talk about.

Thanks again to everyone who helped out earlier. Hope to report back with success later, but knowing that I have the magic-jig on hand makes me far more confident in my future efforts...

EDIT: aww, you're kidding me... 2.2 tonight?? BAH!!

[Captivate Android Development] infinite_shift:
I updated to Axura 2.1 from b5 the other day and noticed I didn't have the advanced CWM options in recovery... I've reflashed Axura 2 times since and still no AdvancedVLK/Lagfix options. I've followed the directions exactly in post 3 which is the same way I flashed Axura b5. Mostly i just wanted to turn off BLN, which is why I noticed this. I have noticed that I don't get the backup/restore option once axura has installed and rebooted.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Read the last few pages...

You are like the 4th person to ask. The kernel used in 2.1 doesn't include the advanced VLK options in CWRecovery. There's an app in the market that will turn off BLN... or you could just wait for 2.2 when Hans goes back to SetiroN's kernel :)
[Captivate Android Development] infinite_shift:

[Captivate Android Development] renden:
the ULF lagfix with the ext2 loops are soooooo fast compared to Voodoo with out it. Try running Touchdown app with and without. You'll see the difference. I'm aware the loops are taboo but they just rock for certain apps.

But anyway, It doen't matter to me which kernel you use. I'll just flash which ever offers the ext2 loops.

Thanks for the awesome rom!
[Captivate Android Development] Bigdog1:
I am very thankful for the reply and education I have been provided with but it leads to another question: where r the loops comming from? I have flashed baack and forth between the 2 ver of Rom and RC1 CE consistently give higher result in QS than RC2.1. It may be psychosomatic but It is hard to accept the difference in scores that is consistent with 2 different versions.

In addition, how di I flash that gps zip file? tried using Rom manager no go.
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
hans why not just make two versions so no complaints come out?

For me, xcal +1

And one last comment. You should put on op that quadrant scores mean squat. It's frustrating when people say "this rom is slow because my quadrant says its score is 1100! I got 2200 with other roms"
