well, what exactly is it that i'm missing?

caaaaaaaaause i've installed pretty much every rom in existence and never had one that auto-deletes the launchers it's bundled with

also, what's so unique about this rom? i've got the OC'd kernel installed and it seems more laggy than the aospMOD rom i had installed previously
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
when you flashed setiron's kernel and applied a lagfix did you choose the backup and restore option when it asked you to?
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
you have to choose a lagfix after? i figured that voodoo5 was auto-enabled on this rom regardless of the kernel

but no, its not that..cause everything else that was bundled unique to this rom was still on there
[Captivate Android Development] c0ns0le:
amd by choosing to do it this way do you run a higher risk of not being able to get into recovery mode due to reoriented buttons?

Personally i'd much rather take a long road considering i can't seem to get a successful jtag built via id4-301k1%-grnd cable.
[Captivate Android Development] Drybones5:
I did this all this afternoon when I got back home.

When I finished the first thing I did was do gps. Holy crap it locks on fast!

And the OS, it's omg fast too, haha.

The gingerbread theme is great too. Now I can also have the Google App goodies reserved for Froyo as well.

XDA prevails before Manufactures can blink.

Side Note: The 3G icon in the status bar doesn't show up, and is instead replaced with a simple "G". I first thought I had no data connection, but I have 3G, I checked.

I thanked your post btw. You made my Captivate Captivating again :D
[Captivate Android Development] Cruton502:
I would just flash back to stock, perform a master clear and start over. You already have all the files downloaded.

SMS Texting

Anyone having issues with SMS messaging.

I'm able to recieve but not send, i'd presume this would have something to do w/ the apn but i'm only guessing.

I've seen a few others which have had this issue but, seemed the discussion just dropped off the forum.

Any help here?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
voodoo is tied directly to the kernel. my suggestion to you, since you obviously are having a hard time understanding the options available, is that you just go with the xcaliburinhand kernel that uses voodoo and does not overclock/undervolt and does not offer the ULF...this isnt meant to be mean, but its obvious that you havent actually read about the kernels and how the lagfixes operate. the info is here, and there is a lot of it, so you should probably do a lot more reading before you break your phone
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
Short answer:

You must choose the first option (backup and restore) in order to get the apps located in the data folder. It has nothing to do with the system apps.

Loving this so far minus one small detail.... I like the new updated GB swype keyboard better, anyone have a link or cwm zip for this? I've looked in many rom threads and cant find it.... Thanks

Ok I'm having a huge issue with the data...

My phone is stuck on G. Not Edge. Not 3G. G

I can't make it go up to 3G or Edge at all!
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
You sir are a scholar..... Thank you:D
[Captivate Android Development] Drybones5:
Do you guys think I can fix this with a new modem? Which one do you think I should use?

The JK4_odin

or i9000ugjk4 CMW flashable

EDIT: I'm going to CMW flash it. Tell you if it works
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
That'll fix it. Either one is fine.
[Captivate Android Development] Drybones5:
I hope so. Having 7 Kilobytes a second down and 1 kilobyte/s up is horrible.
[Captivate Android Development] Drybones5:
I put on JK4 and it have 615 kbps down

868 kbps up

What? What happened to my download speed?
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
First , are you using speedtest.net app? second, have you tried changing the server its pinging?
[Captivate Android Development] Drybones5:
While you were saying that I was thinking that the app was being retarded as was in the middle of getting something else to test it with.

My browser speeds are good though, doesn't represent the speed test app
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Speedtest app is weird.. I can use a server a 10 states away and get faster speeds then the server 100miles from me
[Captivate Android Development] Drybones5:
FCC Broadband test from Orlando, FL to Atlanta, GA gets:

1908 kbps Down

877 kbps Up

94 ms latency

Much better. Stupid speedtest.net app. Wouldn't even let me pick a close server.

Funny, same developer made this app.
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
I have tried all roms in forums thus far and this by far is the fastest and most stable. Truly looking forward for next update, great job..... Hopefully I can have the updated swype....
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
im well aware of most of the lagfixes out there and how/why they operate as such. i've never had a kernel with the new voodoo installed and as part of this installation, voodoo takes about 10 minutes to do it's various operations to the filesystem and as such i assumed THAT was the lagfix applied and in which case, it would be pointless and detrimental to apply any other lagfixes.

and that compiled with the fact that nowhere in this thread and nowhere in the OP does it mention choose ANY lagfix is what led to my confusion.

to be honest, this doesnt seem to be an issue with the kernel, as the responsiveness of the ROM was consistent with both the original un-re-oriented "(if thats a word) kernel, setiron's kernel and the reoriented kernel (2.2.1)

i cant tell if this was a bad install because everything else performed as it's intended to once i sorted everything out but it just wasnt as responsive as aospMOD with the same kernel

for instance....the notification bar when pulled down was EXTREMELY choppy. and that sort of jitter was present throughout the rom and left me questioning the overall reliability of the rom.

i dont know if im alone in noticing this....anybody that's installed this can either confirm or deny.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
are you testing immediately after you boot up the first time? there is a lot of stuff going on behind the scene, even after the media scanning is done. if you open up a cmd prompt and run logcat you will see that it is busy doing things like caching/creating thumbnails, etc. give it about 10-15 minutes, install your apps, reboot, wait 5 minutes and test again. you will immediately notice the difference
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
Hrm ....I let it sit for a long while although im not quite sure about 15 minutes (after the first boot)...maybe that's what caused the weirdness

It sat for a good hour or two after the first time I rebooted but who knows if it was doing anything

Maybe ill give it another try
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
alright i just finished following your steps up to 5, but i i got to scared to put it on my phone lol still new to this. and the terminology. when you say drop the zImage from x's kernel, and the modem (jk4) into darkys rom, is that the same as replacing them? sounds like a stupid question i know, . I did delete the zImage an modem that were in the rom, just not sure it was the right thing. then like i said got scared , deleted who;e thing and wanted clarification before i start over lol :o also my jk4 modem download says modem. (1).bin is the (1) an issue?:confused: or can I just delete is so it says modem.bin?
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
when you say drop the zImage from x's kernel, and the modem (jk4) into darkys rom, is that the same as replacing them? Yes, replace zimage

also my jk4 modem download says modem. (1).bin is the (1) an issue?:confused: or can I just delete is so it says modem.bin?: Just replace modem.bin

do not rename anything, just replace those 2 files and zip up then flash using CWM
[Captivate Android Development] mateiszk:
can you use battery mod on this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
Dude you rock! thank you for breaking it down. i will try this when i get home:D don't delete and don't re name anything just drop files....got it
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
thats it. i really dont understand the need for all the steps in the first post....too cumbersome

you can pretty much do this with any rom by the way. use a kernel/modem combo that you like and you can drop into any rom
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
Icezar posted on post #3 battery mod but it will change animations as well. You can use an online kitchen possibly, but I've never done that personally.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Not yet. I just noticed it. This is a kernel issue, there are no souces for the JPU kernel yet so we'll have to wait for that or for a great dev to fix it somehow
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Try the mod, and if you dont like animations disable them or set them to Fast in Spare Parts. Trust me the're not at all annoying. They are a bit different than in the video provided though
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Indeed, I will update the OP, thanks.

Anyhow, if you have CWM on your sdcard you wont need to root or install Rom Manager
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Check your outgoing server number. I got that once as well with some ROM. Found out there was no number in there
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
interesting, for me they were as I knew them, the flying... the video is not 100% accurate on the animations
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
open up the darky's 5.2 rom zip file, inside the /system/framework/framework-res.apk file, there is a folder called anim

you should be able to just copy that folder into your currently running framework-res.apk and reboot. animations should come back

dont forget to always make a backup of your current framework-res.apk first. if you reboot and get nothing but black screen and constant FCs or vibrations, you can use adb to push that file back to where it needs to go
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
awesome! i did not know that.i will have to commit it to memory ( or at least print it off so i can read it.lol No disrespect to the op , I appreciate all he has done in this thread. but as I am just starting to get comfortable with all these processes ( flashing roms, swapping files, etc... I find that the fewer the steps the less chance of me screwing something up lol. trust me I have dodged more than a couple bullets with my phone but knock on wood, because of all you tech pros i have recovered. thank you all for all your knowledge and help:D
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Please dont try doing this with Setiron's kernel!!! It wont work. You can try with xcaliburinhand's one but I did not test it yet. Give me few minutes, I'll get home and I'll prepare a zip.

Here is a post from Setiron's thread:

And, yes, I tested it even though I saw this and it didnt work, as Setiron said.
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
to play it "safe", I just replaced the whole framework-res.apk file for the time being just to get rid of the gaudy animations :) but thanks though!

What is the website for the "Rom kitchen"? the one that lets you choose which mod you want and then it creates an update.zip file?

Has anyone tried the new modem on this ROM? TL3 or something...
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
you are correct. i forgot about that. i have no use for overclocking, so i prefer to use xcaliburinhand's kernel. good lookin out
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
http://circle.glx.nl/

im going to stick that modem in later today
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
Ok, I wont :eek: Thank you for the warning.:D
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
so, I used the "rom kitchen" for circle battery mod.. yeah that didn't work. FC's upon reboot :)
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
did you pull the framework-res.apk out of the rom and upload it? i cant see that causing FC's if you used the framework from the rom
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Yes sure did.. downloaded the .zip that was created and flashed via clockwork.. everything is fc'ing
[Captivate Android Development] evanstapler:
So I flashed to stock, and it turns out I can't enter download mode with the key combo, and I'm in recovery. Odin is stuck at <ID:0/003> SetupConnection.., but I can still select the phones recovery options.

Can I unplug ti and reboot the phone? And how can I enter download mode? adb shell isn't recognized in cmd.
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
The key combos below?

Troubleshooting

Key combos:

Recovery: Vol up + Vol Down + Power

Download: both volume buttons pressed while inserting USB from power off mode.
[Captivate Android Development] evanstapler:
The battery showed up as charging. That's all that happened :-/ Do I need to install something on my phone first?
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
Turn the phone on first and use adb to get into download. Your phone is not going to go into any mode if it is turned off and charging. Also, don't use adb shell. All you need is adb reboot download.
[Captivate Android Development] Drybones5:
When going into download make sure to keep holding the vol up and down buttons even after you insert the usb cables.

for recovery, keep hold down all three buttons until you see recovery screen. It shouldn't boot up into android.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
The keys combo I posted in post no.3 are for after flashing the last kernel (setiron).

If you're on stock, try to pop out the battery, external sdcard, sim card, put battery back in and with Vol up + Vol down pressed, plug in the USB.

If not, let it boot in welcome screen, go to Settings - Applications - Development - USB debugging. Assuming you have android sdk installed, go to command prompt and enter adb reboot download with ODIN open and phone connected. Should work. However, wait a bit, I'm uploading a version that you can flash straight from stock.
[Captivate Android Development] evanstapler:
I do, and when I type adb shell it says "'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file." USB debugging is on. Sim card is out.

I can get into recovery fine, but nothing I try for download is working. Maybe it's because my battery is low?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
do you have the SDK installed? are you in the proper tools directory or do you have the tools folder in your environment path?
[Captivate Android Development] Drybones5:
Download requires a USB cable, and that means it'll at least use external power sources to run it.
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
Do not type adb shell in the command prompt. Open command prompt, change directory to adb tools location, type adb reboot download you will enter download mode. Much easier than using any kind of 3 button recovery.

Why do you want to get into download mode anyway? You said you're on stock, so what is it you're trying to accomplish?
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
first time i'm running adb-

I need to push the framework-res.apk from my c:\android to the /system/framework

is this the command

adb push c:\android\framework-res.apk h:\system\framework\framework-res.apk
[Captivate Android Development] evanstapler:
Finally, it works. Majinzhen was right with when to type adb reboot download. And I was only in the sdk directory, not tools.

I'm doing this for step 5, flashing all the files with Odin. Thanks everyone for all the help!
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
you will likely get access denied.

better to do

adb push c:\path\to\file\filename.extension /sdcard/somefolder/

then run

adb shell

su

cp /sdcard/somefolder/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
does the phone have a drive directory?

so c:\file.ext h:\sdcard?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
NO

/sdcard/ is your internal sdcard....

linux doesnt use DRIVE LETTERS
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
file was copied, but as soon as I type /somefolder/framework - I get permission denied
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
umm....huh?
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
weird.. I'm not even pressing enter - just as I finish typing framework.. I get permission denied
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
so you do

adb shell

then you get a $ prompt?

then

su

then what happens? you should see a # instead of a $
[Captivate Android Development] evanstapler:
I missed your post between reading and posting! I'll wait then, since the only thing I've done so far is flash from stock. So excited to try this ROM out, been waiting for days!
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
Why don't you make it easy on yourself and use Root Explorer or Super Manager (free) to copy over your new framework?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
adb is a good thing to learn.....laziness will eventually bite you in the ass
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
True... but I haven't been able to push anything on 2.2. Always get permission denied. Did it on 2.1 with ease, many times. I am an adb novice anyway, so I started taking the easy way, and it works for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
like i said. dont try adb push to /system/anything

you will get denied

always drop into a shell and cp from the sdcard to /system after elevating your privileges with su first....should be able to do it without su if you are in recovery mode...
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
so I used a directory that I knew was in the /sdcard and it copied over.

I then type

adb shell

su

cp /sdcard/cwm/framework-res.apk /system/framework/

I then get a #

however, when I browse to the file in astro - the file is still the old one (based on date)
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
ok

when you ran the command did it spit the same command back out before dropping back to a #?
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Yes it did
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
now reboot your phone ;)
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
rebooting now..

Fantastic! It worked! I figured I would get some kind of notification after issuing the cp command that it was successful or not :)
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
I'd like to see how this ends up using adb too. I always get permission denied. LOL. Guess i suck at it....
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
I normally would :) However, after flashing the circle battery mod on this rom, everything was force closing on me - it was either ADB or reflash
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
re-read my instructions ;)
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
You've been quite informative. I'll try it your way next time. I was gonna thank you but where'd the button go?
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
Mount R/W

With this ROM like with Axura RC2.1 I had to mount R/W in root explorer over and over. Is there a fix?
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
The /system is mounted as ext4 data=writeback mode. If you boot it in R/W a power loss or reboot from console or from "Quick Boot" application might kill your phone. I believe is a precaution.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Easier now :)

Darky's 5.2 for Captivate and new instructions UP. Enjoy
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesofly:
So I'm kind of an exception case for music, where I hunt for all my music via music blogs. The problem with this is that most of the songs I download aren't part of an album, and most of the time are pre releases, or bootlegs.

In these situations how do I organize my music through zune?!

Editing tag information in Zune REQUIRES an album name. Adding albums that don't have an album name are tagged "Unknown Album {Date Added}".

Is there any way to just have the songs without album names hidden? I've even tried using a space, but then it started grouping all of those together as an unknown album :(.

Other than that do you guys have a particular way in how you organize music?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zedox:
Uhm. I would just make a bogus album name (aka song name). There's no way to just have album so just do it that way. You can always just look at different ways to look at ur music, by artist, song, etc...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorki247:
That's what I do for any artist where I have b-sides or demos in addition to the regular albums. I create an album called 'singles' and group all the non-album tracks under those. You could create different albums like this; demos, singles, bootlegs, etc.
