[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] svrnmnd:
UPDATE:

so I went through root explorer side by side with my droid and my brothers droid2

in /system/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf there are differences, the bottom lines of the droid are as followed

# Just an example of potential config options for the other interfaces

[A2DP]

SBCSources=1

MPEG12Sources=0

[AVRCP]

InputDeviceName=AVRCP

when I looked at the audio.conf of the droid 2 it had differences here...

# Just an example of potential config options for the other interfaces

[A2DP]

SBCSources=1

MPEG12Sources=1

[AVRCP]

InputDeviceName=AVRCP

MetaDataSupport=1

ControllerSupport=1

also there was a bluetoothDUN.apk file on the droid2 . I saved his audio.conf and the apk and put them on my sdcard, swapped out the audio.conf file and rebooted, connected and paired bluetooth then played music and used superbtmonofroyo with no luck. I went back to my sd card and installed the bluetoothDUN apk and rebooted connected bluetooth again and still was unable to listen to music (actually this time an error popped up saying bluetoothdun not working properly force close, so I uninstalled the btdunl.apk)....are the .conf files connected to permissions somewhere that I am missing ? does anybody know?

orig.

I have a droid1 and Im running Charity Rom before that I just had stock 2.2.1 rooted. both are unable to stream audio through a mono bluetooth , but when I tried using Super BT mono froyo on my brothers droid 2 it works perfect.

when I flashed the charity rom I noticed that I had lost the ability to rotate my google maps in the new 3d view mode with multitouch and there was a simple permissions fix here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=880445

Is it possible the answer to this bluetooth bug might be a permissions or config issue?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkallivrousis:
Hey guys im new to the Captivate. I use to be a heavy iphone user i had the iphone 3g then 3gs then 4 and well i decided its time to take the jump to android. All my iphone were jailbroken so obviously im interested in rooting. I rooted my Captivate the day i got it (Last saturday). I really want to get 2.2 Froyo. Now i keep reading about roms. I know how to load them but what are they, anything you can relate them to as iphone. Now on to my main question since im not to android friendly yet i want a stable 2.2 which one would you recommend to be the most stable. Ive seen Cognition and Axura but i dont know what they do nor do i know if theres better. Sorry to seem like a noob but i mainly got this phone for the learning curve of it so tell me everything haha.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootnik:
Don't flash Axura first! If you do you'll be disappointed in every other rom you try, lol.

Cognition is a great first flash. It installs the lag fix for you and is very stable (get a non OC version). Axura is my favorite. It is very fast, has some IU tweaks, and they have great support. I still recommend Cognition as a first flash though as everything is done for you during the install. You can pretty much install it, change your wallpaper, sync your contacts and be done with it. (Make sure you sync you contacts with google before you flash)

One thing that I overlooked during my first flash is removing the sim card. Don't forget to do this.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarlow:
Cognition was my first flash, and I haven't found reason to try something else. Its super fast and stable, and was really easy to flash.

I'm running the beta6 version. These phones are not known for long lasting batteries so I always avoid oc roms.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kareeem:
Cognition was great, but Perception is even better :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Before Flashing I would read the post READ BEFORE FLASHING!!!!! under the dev forum - and make sure you understand how to restore before flashing.

And comparing Apple to Android really is trying to compare Apple to Oranges (pun intended).

NOTHING is the same between the two pretty much.

And.. I'd def go with Cognition as a first ROM - as it is a "basic" ROM that is currently using a Captivate kernel.

After you are really comfortable with tweaking your phone - you have your choice of ROMs. Just beware that the i9000 ROMS have their own unique issues - so flasher beware.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
A rom, more or less is a package that updates your phones software. most roms are based off of foreign leaks.

When you flash a rom you are not just getting 2.2. In almost all cases you are getting a new kernel, most of which have s lag fix to further improve performance. Your modem will be changed as well, some moderns enable hsupa or basically faster upload and download speeds then what you have with stock.

Roms also have their own theme. Changes in the notification bar, menus, custom animations, boot animations. Etc

Do not flash anything till you read some, I would suggest starting with this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989

This is a program that allows you to go back to stock, also allows you to recovery from a bad flash.

My vote on which to flash us axura or assonance. Axura may be the best option as it is a very user friendly thread and there are many people there who will help you if you need it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkallivrousis:
Woops being as impatient as i am i decided to put Axura but no worries im reflashing to stock then ill put Cognition on lol This is good pratice for me. Is there a way to have like 2 roms installed say if i wanted to boot from one to the other then maybe back to stock or am i thinking about computers too much lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
If you are on axura why not give ot a shot

You can have multiple roms saved to your sd. Flash stock, load rom. want to change, flash stock, load rom
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkallivrousis:
what about all your data? i hate reentering my info and apps lol also im on cognition now so too late but i still have the rom in my internal SD
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bames:
started out with cognition and Axura once it was available.

Cognition, Axura, and Perception were my first three roms and didn't think i would wonder from DG.

Still think DG does great work but i have just about everything with the exception of Darkys (though i have seen a few new ones pop in in the last couple of days i haven't played with Insanity and the ginger clone)......

once i found and flashed Chronos i haven't looked back or missed any other rom enough to flash something else.

So my recommendation would be chronos.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootnik:
Titanium Backup, it is free in the app store.

You can backup your apps+data, but it is not recommend to backup system settings. It only takes a few minutes to set the system settings, not worth any possible problems later on if you choose to restore them IMO.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkallivrousis:
ok i just flashed to Cognition Do i need to do anything i read something about the battery also keep seeing something about Voodoo care to help me?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I would read more before flashing

go to your my files. Should see a file called voodoo. Go inside, should be logs, go inside. If there are files in there voodoo is working. Not a bad idea to do a couple reboots
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootnik:
The last time I installed Cognition voodoo was installed automatically, not sure if they have changed it since then. Did your captivate talk to you during the first boot? They usually have a voice telling you what is going on while installing voodoo.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkallivrousis:
Ok voodoo is running because there 2 folders and file in there

2010-12-21_20-22-06

2010-12-21_20-12-33-conversion

voodoo_history_log

Those are the files so i guess im good what about the battery? think i should be ok?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootnik:
I don't remember doing anything to the battery. They say to make sure it is fully charged before flashing. Maybe there are some tweaks you can do, somebody else who uses Cognition more will have to answer that.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootnik:
You've got me interested. I'm going to try out Chronus. I'm a fan of minimalistic roms... it would take allot to sway me from Axura though. It just runs so smooth.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bosewicht:
So with Gingerbread incorporating SIP I was curious if anyone had any preferences in SIP providers.

I've tried sipgate, which seems to work pretty well and i bought a gizmo5 account from ebay, but i don't think they are letting you purchase credits. I tried to put money on the account, but it's been pending for quite some time now and there is no way to contact anyone.

Any other preferences that seem to work well?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mightytonbiggie:
Sipgate works, and they gave me 60 minutes on a free account to work with.

Didn't u get the 60 minutes?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
Check the gizmo5 forums - you aren't alone there. One post is speculating on how they are no longer adding credit pending an integration with google voice.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bosewicht:
I got the 60 minutes, but just looking for other good inexpensive providers or what other people may be using.

@krohnjw

Yeah i seen that after i tried to add credits
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snoboard26:
I added 10$ worth of credit to my gizmo5 account on Saturday and it finally showed up this morning just wait. If you read their faqs it shows they ask for 12 business hours before they will update your account.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bosewicht:
Haha, i just checked and i now have 10 dollars there as well. Maybe they have one person that works one day a week to approve credits
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimfire72:
Haha, same here - I paid $10 on Dec 19 and finally just got credited today!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigtalker:
Free sip providers

Here are some FREE sip providers:

Whistlephone-dot-com Android app and available sip credentials and DID

voipmyway-dot-com deal changes daily sip creds available free did

zipring-dot-com beta program??

nettalk-dot-com/smartphone android app for gsm/wifi
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MotorcycleKopp:
I'm using Sipgate completely free to place AND receive calls -not using up/buying any minutes/credits. I'm using it with Google Voice AND the "Google Voice Callback FREE" app.... thus it's 100% FREE

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timonoj:
I just posted a whole comparison chart of different SIP providers here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=967115
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc211:
I looked into a few providers and didn't like that fact you need to buy credit to make outgoing calls.

I did also setup the work around using sipgate to make free outgoing calls. It wasn't as tightly integrated as I liked so I kept working.

My conclusion was magicjack is the way to go. You know that commerical you see on tv, free phone calls for $25 a year. You can use software to get your sip credentials from the box then use them anywhere.

(link)

Then just plug your sip info into the native calling app and your done. $25 a year for unlimited calling.

I rooted using UnEVOked 3.2 and everything went okay. Problem is that when i go into recovery it goes to a black screen with white outlines on both sides of the screen, No text or information is displayed. I have tried flashing the newest clockwork recovery mod VIA Rom manager. Still same problem, I need help asap. I cant do any nandroid functions..... :(

Back when I had eclair my navigation was great. I would be cruising and I'd give me the arrow and a route to follow and the arrow would turn with the car. Now that I have custom froyo rom on my epic my gps works fine, but it wouldn't give me the arrow. It would just give me a map with the route. :mad::confused:
[Captivate General] artisticcheese:
Question.

My understanding if I'm on stock ROM and over the air Froyo comes from ATT I'll be able to upgrade preserving all settings/applications etc.

Is there such a possibility with current ROMs from community? That is upgrading OS in place while preserving both applications and settings?
[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
Why would you want to go back to the broken crappy Samsung bull?

Sent from my Captivate.
[Captivate General] Dani897:
he doesnt. thats the point. he wants a comunity rom with convienience of att ota updates. well as of right now i dont believe there is. it is usually recomended to flash back to stock. there were early cognition/sre roms that didn't wipe data but right now working with froyo leaks each rom my be built off a diferent build. add in the variable of mods tweeks and hacks and there is no telling what data on your phone will cause a problem. some devs offer update scripts for updating to a newer version of there own rom if you have the previous version but most roms at the moment wipe data.
[Captivate General] emuneee:
You are better off upgrading from stock. Your playing with fire if you update a ROM OTA and the ROM you are using has some pretty heavy customizations, different kernel, or different modem.
[Captivate General] artisticcheese:
Everybody misunderstood what I wanted to do. I want to upgrade to custom ROM and continue upgrading to the same type of ROM but upgrading in place while preserving all the settings. I don't want to have OTA ATT upgrades, I want upgrades in place for custom ROM. I just don't understand how ATT can do that with OTA upgrade and yes none of custom ROMs available here can not do the same thing.
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
its harder to do without SOURCE available for our particular device. what we have right now is messy and hacked together. if samsung would just release source for the captivate we would have this in place already. i seem to remember no-wipe updates available on 2.1 roms
[Nook Color General] viragoboy:
I just ran into an interesting problem and was able to solve it, I figured I'd post it here in case anyone else runs into it.

So I got my NC on Thursday and promptly rooted it on Friday morning, everything was smooth sailing until I started installing a bunch of apps and noticed that some things were randomly failing. Specifically baffling was the "Downloads" view in the market app. I used the Log Collector app to take a look at the logs and saw some exceptions like so:

12-21 12:08:54.890 E/AndroidRuntime( 1719): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to get provider com.android.providers.media.MediaProvider: android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: no such table: main.audio: , while compiling: SELECT album_art FROM album_info

12-21 12:08:54.890 E/AndroidRuntime( 1719): at android.app.ActivityThread.installProvider(ActivityThread.java)

Some snooping around revealed that there's a missing sql view in /data/data/com.android.providers.media/databases/internal.db. Sometime during NC startup some app tries to delete the view and rebuild it, but since the view was already gone it couldn't delete and therefore failed:

12-21 13:42:30.475 E/Database( 1867): Failure 1 (use DROP TABLE to delete table audio) on 0x2c50e0 when preparing 'DROP VIEW IF EXISTS audio'.

12-21 13:42:30.475 D/AndroidRuntime( 1867): Shutting down VM

Solution - pull internal.db off the device, create a dummy view named audio in the database (I used Sqliteman on ubuntu) and push it back to the NC.

Reboot, problem fixed. Hope someone finds some use in this writeup.

I've been looking for a decent quality static cling screen protector. This one sounds pretty good. Does anyone have the Anti-Glare one? How does it look? Does it darken the screen much? Does it keep finger prints off?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] chobie:
I believe all anti-glare films, regardless of the brand, will do that and also decrease the clarity of the screen. It's just how they work.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ACHILLES R32:
I bought Clarivue ultra clear the same time i ordered my otterbox, the otterbox screen protector was really good. But the Clarivue protector is amazing, install was not hard at all. I did an amazing job installing it no bubbles or lint at all. I showed the phone to my friend and he couldn't believe that i had a screen protector on. The cut is perfect covers the whole screen. When you install it make sure you put some tape on the edges, it will be easier to align the protector. i took pics of the phone with the screen protector on, i was just trying to show that no lint is present.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Nissan350:
These protectors are awesome. No one could tell that I even have a screen protector on! They fit extremely well and feel exactly like the glass, unlike zagg or similar which gives you a rubbery feel and creates more friction than anything else (annoying as hell if you use swype). Highly recommend!

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] vtran03:
i have the clarivue anti-glare and its decent but this is probably the second anti-glare ive ever bought for a phone so i don't have much experience with them. compared to the first one i bought from tmobile its definitely an upgrade... fingerprints are visible after a while and the screen is diminished a bit but overall i do like it. the cut isn't perfect as it doesn't cover certain areas completely but i mean its like a millimeter off.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ACHILLES R32:
I had to take off the ultra clear screen protector, because it got scratched up. Could not stand all the scratches. I installed the second one, but its not a perfect fit like the first clarivue protector. Im not sure why the second was was not a perfect fit, but i will leave it on.
