Many thanks ! Did work for me ... not so good looking as Darky's mail app but working!
[Captivate Android Development] vkazak:
Glaxy e mail app is not sync anymore ( just first sync only ) .

Is it a chance to look in and fix it for the next update ?

Love the rom but can not use it for my work ( e mail ) needs.

Tons of thanks in advance !!!

Hey i just bought a captivate off ebay for christmas its arriving soon so ive been doing research, this will sound like a super beginner question but it was completly unmodified by last owner and was reset to factory defaults, can i just follow the rom manager steps and it will work?

Thanks sorry for my lack of knowledge
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I need an explanation for future reference. I was on 6.0.3 and I wanted to go to 7.0.1. I did Odin 1 Click to get to stock and then One Click Root. Placed 7.0.1 on my sdcard used ROM Manager but when I tried to install it went to "Manual" Mode and didn't load ROM automatically like 6.0.3 did.So while I was in Manual Mode I tried to "reinstall Packages" in an attempt to go ahead and Manually install it but I never could get to the screen where I make the installation options. So I go back to Rom Manager and this time try to install 6.0.3 again but it too now went to Manual Mode and wouldn't install automatically like it had the first time. However when I chose Reinstall Packages it did go to the next step and I able to scroll down and find both 6.0.3 or 7.0.1 I chose 7.0.1 and it loaded and I did Manual reboot and Phone is now 7.0.1. I got No Problem loading a ROM this way but I was wondering why wouldn't it load Automatically like before? I figure it got something to do with the Stock that I reloaded and something was there or not set correctly.

Thanks

I think you should remove Sbl.bin from the package. It's meaning less and dangerous(original Sbl.bin does boot GT-i9000 ROM and any accident during Sbl replacement will brick the phone).
[Captivate Android Development] xaudiblex:
I just flashed this rom & its simply amazing! Unfortunately, I am stuck on edge instead of 3g right now. Can anyone help me on this?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
The sbl.bin that is included is from dg's three button fix. Its the same one he includes in his roms.

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Flashed 7.0.1 this morning and cannot download any .zip file from the phone (URL link) Download history gives a message"The content is not supported on the phone"

I have astro installed if that makes a difference to handle zip files... but this is something new to me..:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] onesikpuppy:
Two problems with 7.0.1

1. Email (non-gmail) force closes. Had to start using K9, thats working fine.

2. You tube app not working.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
Quick question prior to the next release.

Does anyone actually like the samsung email app? I have been using the aosp email app for months now and find it to be far superior.

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Captivate Android Development] deakinsjello:
I don't like the samsung version. I think it's laggy and not as smooth as the AOSP version. Trying to pull up emails and delete emails was very slow. I've actually been using Roadsync lately. I've heard others bash the AOSP version but would never give details on what they didn't like about it.
[Captivate Android Development] sjavvaji:
is this the stock font for gingerbread?...it looks a tiny bit different from 6.1.3
[Captivate Android Development] kr3w1337:
Using this ROM with the 1.5.6 kernel and 1400 mhz OC, and all ext4 mounts with ext2 loop, the thing gets nearly 2300 on Quadrant when nothing is running and almost 2200 after a complete boot and load.

Everything opens instantly, totally bomb. Love you. Using version 7
[Captivate Android Development] sabesh:
No such issues here.
[Captivate Android Development] AMaench:
I think the mount issue needs some work. Finally found the settings for the phone so I could change it to mass storage and my Mac rejects it saying the disk is unrecognizable. Also why would you put the usb selection option in the wireless networks area?Just keep the menus like they are in the stock option so people know where they are at.

I have also noticed the "Synchronise" button at that bottom of those menus "force closes" every single time so that needs to be ironed out.

Overall this ROM is pretty nice it just needs some refinement and clarity.
[Captivate Android Development] ksimilie:
My scores on this thing are terrible. I get around 1000 on quadrant. Im using the kernel that it came with, reoriented 2.6.9
[Captivate Android Development] nybmx:
Sounds like you didnt enable voodoo. Go into the voodoo folder and delete the file "disable-lagfix" and then reboot and wait.
[Captivate Android Development] ksimilie:
That might be it, i assumed everything was reasy to go after the flash. Thanks.

Edit: honestly thought i feel like its really fast even wity the bad quadrant scores.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I remembering doing this in 6.0.3 but I don't see the Lagfix thing in the Voodoo Parent Folder 7.0.3. Is it in some Sub Folder in Voodoo 7.0.3?
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
That is because Quadrant is stupid and meaningless and this ROM does not need the lagfix to be snappy so enjoy ;)
[Captivate Android Development] vkazak:
I am new to this update _ i like e mail app ( vibrant version supplied through sgs ) with split screen option or samsung one with option to choose black background for power savings ( found in Tayutama's firmware 1.03 )

thanks for asking ... Hope for fixed and fully functional mail app to be used with business exchange server.

thaaaaanks!!
[Captivate Android Development] jambrous:
I have tried out tthree different roms, and I like this one the most. However, I find my battery doesnt last long on any of these customs. I did the whole calibration procedure, but is there something else I can do to get this battery lasting longer? I lost 4% like five min after bootup just phone sitting idle.
[Captivate Android Development] moosefist:
FYI

I replaced the dialertabactivity.apk and phone.apk from perception 9.5 in this build, and it removed the video call button from the dial pad and when you hangup phone calls. The only place I notice the video call options is in the contacts. I tried replacing several files, but it always would crash the acore process unless I used the jpy files.

http://db.tt/l7NRcaQ is the DialerTabActivity.apk and http://db.tt/kvsfgbx is the Phone.apk files I copied from p9.5 with root explorer.... Viola no more annoying video call!

Overall, I love the rom. I can't believe a Sammy tw rom can be this fast without a lag fix.
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
I need a guinea pig, pm me if you're up for it please
[Captivate Android Development] waiting4gingerbread:
what GPS fix did you add, and can it be applied to JL3? I just downloaded 6.0 and would rather patch myself than redownload. thank you
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Nothing yet. I added a fix to the modem where people were getting soft reboots when switching fron one at&t band to another. I'm going to try to release the gps fix tonight. The modem isn't a big issue, you can wait until the next build if you want, but you might experience a reboot or two.
[Captivate Android Development] waiting4gingerbread:
cool, thanks for the quick response! good customer service :D
[Captivate Android Development] domin0311:
is lagfix disabled?
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Nope, Voodoo lagfix is running
[Captivate Android Development] O boy:
I got to say this is the first time the rom is actually working. The first few times I kept getting error messages when the rom booted up and the last few times my phone hung on the colorful x logo. So keep working on this darky rom and thanks again for making it usuable.

second question i heard you were updating the gps tonight? Is that coming with a newer version of the rom or just a gps fix?
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
I can either do it tonight or with the next release of the rom. Also in the next release I'm going to modify the build.prop to show captovate instead of GT-I9000.
[Captivate Android Development] custommsp:
The Voodoo folder on the SD card has a file disable-lagfix. The system runs sluggish every time an application is installing in the background. Does this mean that voodoo is disabled by default?

Edit: Actually, I deleted the disable-lagfix file, rebooted, and after a few mins had a confirmation from the "voice" that the lagfix "is now enabled" ?

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] domin0311:
that happened to me as well
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Im sorry, i was incorrect in saying that voodoo is enabled by default. It isnt. To enable it you need to remove disable-lagfix from the sdcard. It will be enabled in the next release, however.
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Lol way to quote! I'm out right now, but the plan right now is to have the gps and a few other tweaks in by a build I'm putting out tonight.
[Captivate Android Development] mattern1974:
Force closes on e-mail and no calls coing through

I flashed your rom today and it is great EXCEPT I am getting force closes on email.apk and when calls come in I get a force close and they go directly to my voicemail. I tried a fix permissions through Clockwork Recovery but no good. Please help!!

Also force closes on Maps and Navigation.

Going to try a stock flash and then back to see if it helps.

EDIT: I flashed from stock and all is now good. Maybe you should recommend a flash from stock in the future. Otherwise, once I enabled the lagfix, the rom flies!!! Great work!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I prefer to use Setiron's Kernel so I supposed there is no problem by replacing the zimage file for one of Setiron's Kernel right?
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Nope. That'll work just fine because that's an i9000 reoriented kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
I'm putting BLN support in the next build. You'll have to dl from the market though.
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
Awesome, thanks... I thank you sir! (bln)
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Thanks.

I have never flashed a ROM like this, is there a reason we are not doing it via the usual ClockworkMod recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
Never mind I found the Lagfix file. There were 2 Voodoo Folders one on Parent and one in the sdcard folder.
[Captivate Android Development] ccdoggy:
So i ran into allot of problems with Force closes when i installed it the first two times. I ended up going a route to make sure all if the old files that might have stayed behind were deleted and cleared out. Then i used a recovery cwm to install, delete user data and then installed the Rom. I will upload the files and directions tonight or tomorrow. I found that cwm iinstalled from the market would not install correctly on my din recovered install and so that's why i was having problems also.

Its a great Rom so far. Battery still needs to calibrated a little as i am seeing more battery consumption then i would like but it is stable and very smooth even without voodoo.

How much extra power would enabling voodoo take in the long run? I don't know much about it and so am just curious about turning it know if it does ntt take up much extra battery.

Thanks for the great Rom and i should have my directions on install up tonight or tomorrow i think.

Only real problems with it i am seeing is that the home button does not have any haptic. But that's not a big deal.

Download Manager and DRM Content eating battery?

I'm seeing ~5% drop in battery per hour with very light usage on 7.0, so I installed PowerTutor and noticed that Download Manager and DRM Content are using a huge amount of battery and continue to drain battery after everything is closed in task manager... Anybody else noticing this?

Rotating issue

Darky thank you for your time and effort on this rom its very nice and also very fast. My only problem with it and I say only problem is that everything I open rotates the screen automatically. I don't understand why you would do that automatically and not let the user decide when He/She wants to look at an app in landscape view. thi sis the only bad thing about the rom other than that a very fast and no issues rom. Thank you for your efforts and Merry Christmas
[Captivate Android Development] ccdoggy:
Here is how I installed Darky 7.0.1, I had to do this because of some latent files even from a Odin stock install.

THIS WILL DELETE EVERYTHING. That is this procedures purpose just to make sure its totally cleaned out. I know its overkill but I was having problems with email and profiles till i took the cleaning to this level. It should help some out there that are having problems with FCs.

The attached file to this post is ClockWorkMod installable from the normal recovery. I took it from the Axura install procedure.

1. Download Darky and the attached file to your computer.

2. Remove your SIM and SD card.

3. Use Odin to go back to stock then do a master clear.

4. Unmount and format the internal SD card.

5. activate USB debugging and then mount the internal card to the computer and drag over both the update.zip and the darky install .zip to the internal sd card.

6. boot into recovery and select restore apps from Zip (i think thats what its called, cant remember), it will install it then bring you back to the same screen. Select it again and it should then bring you into the CWM recovery mode.

7. Select Wipe Data/Factory reset.

8. Select install zip from sdcard

9. Choose zip from sdcard

10. Go down and select the Darky file

11. Select yes and install Darky in the next menu (again i forgot exactly what it says but there are allot of No)

12. It will commence installing, at one point it will look like something is really messed up because some font gets huge and you will get worried for a second. let it do its thing. once its done it will tell you.

13. select reboot now

14. let it boot, the first time it takes a while (~5 min)

15. Enjoy Darky in all its awesomeness. (dont forget to install sim and sd card sometime after shutting it down after the first boot).

Hope this helps some that are having problems installing and FCs.

Does anyone else have a lag when opening the app drawer? I have voodoo enabled with the inckuded xcal kernel..try this replicate- open xda app from the app drawer, use it for a minute then press the back button until it exits. Do the app icons show immediately or does it take 15 seconds or so for the icons to come up?
[Captivate Android Development] punisher2008:
i get that sometimes jsut thought it was reloading all of the apps again to the drawer. Also have been getting a lot of Launcher Pro force close and just freezing on me a clear cache seems to have fixed it but its only been a couple of hours
[Captivate Android Development] dcrews:
When is LP freezing/fc'ing?

Mine does it on restart, but after that it's fine.

But it's been doing that for a while over several different roms, so i don't think the rom is the problem, I think it's in LP somewhere.
[Captivate Android Development] rootnik:
I got ahold of Adam from the Axura project and he gave me permission to post his animations. I take no credit for this (all credit goes to Adam!), it took me literally 5 minutes to put it together, but this zip has the default Darky 7.01 theme + the Axura animations.

to install:

1. Flash with clockwork

2. Enable animations/transitions with the spare parts app (fast setting works good).
[Captivate Android Development] iqtidar:
one thing i can tell is that this thing flying!!! all should upgrade to really experience the true speed of this phone.no lag fix and other things needed.. camera have really improved alot... im loving this phone more each day. and i didnt not wipe my data before or after flashing.. all still intact.. my apps and all. .:D:D

email app crashing after restore

I just upgraded to Darky 7.01 from an older build of cognition. I got my email set up through the native app and everything was running smoothly (was able to sync, etc). I then did a full Titanium Backup restore and now the email app is force closing every time I open it. Any ideas on how to fix it or install the version of the email app that worked?

Thanks! Everything else is working great, and it's really fast.
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Grab a logcat, or I can't be completely sure what you're talking about.

(400th post!)
[Captivate Android Development] AtoZ0to9:
Very nice rom... until I figured out I couldn't receive calls... get a call and it immediately says sim card removed reboot phone... kept thinking it was the efs.... tried to fix with my backup to no avail... so i did what it said... I rebooted... into recovery... wiped and installed axura again... now my phone actually rings I can get calls... no changes made to efs... might wanna look into that... I understand the user risks involved with running custom roms... but ur rom made my phone not ring and error out...
[Captivate Android Development] iqtidar:
im having the same problem. any other solution other than trying other rom?
[Captivate Android Development] Misled3k:
For this error, and many other errors (such as constant force closes on common apps, or some apps not saving their settings), there is a very simple fix:

Re-flash the rom with "Wipe Data/Cache" enabled.

These "no-wipe" roms are a lie, you need to selected "wipe data/cache" on Rom Manager, otherwise you will likely get one bug or another.

For srs, ytt3r, you should put something like this on the OP: "If you get constant FCs, or can't receive calls... try flashing with the 'Wipe Data/Cache' setting enabled."

(Something like this used to be in the original Darky's thread for version 6... but it was supposedly fixed in version 7. It is a lie, as it still happens even in i9000 phones [Happened to my brother's i9000 phone, flashing Darky's original version 7]).

EDIT:

PS: One of the applications not saving it settings was LauncherPro... so annoying. But the aforementioned procedure fixed the problem for me (as well as the received calls force closing the phone.apk)
[Captivate Android Development] iqtidar:
yes, that fixed it. thank you very much..

You'll need a JTAG if fail during modifying Sbl

I should've just followed my instinct... normally I completely wipe before installing a rom.... just figured it says no wipe and my kernal is different... ill try it again... nice rom
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I am glad you mentioned this. I hadn't checked that and since I just placed this ROM on X-mas morning I just figured no one had tried to call me because I was with all my family and Text messages were coming though. I am getting ready to try to Fix listed.
[Captivate Android Development] AppiePils:
Great rom, nice port.

Only run into the problem that I suffer from major battery drainage. Just did a wipe (as I did a no-wipe prior), but still experiencing the same. Currently running on a 12hr charge max.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
For some reason, i get the best signal strength on this rom. Ive never gotten this many bars in my house consistently.

Battery is the best too.

I love the new samsung remote control app. Funny that's not available in the market. Full tv control on my phone. Now if someone would come up with a ps3 remote...
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
Ok I am back to 7.01 with phone service. Though phone is fast if I disable voodoo lag fix by deleting it how would I go back if I wanted too?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] transfector:
I cleared the application data for the email app and now it appears to be working again. Same thing for barcode scanner, it was FCing, but clearing the application data seems to have fixed it.
[Captivate Android Development] onesikpuppy:
Quick question for anybody else running Adfree. Does your Youtube app work? I'm thinking that is what is causing the problem.
[Captivate Android Development] ccdoggy:
All you need to do is re-name disable-lagfix to something else (I did Nodisable-lagfix) and it will be enabled. if you want to disable it then just rename it back to the original.

Love this rom. Flashed 7.0.1 over 7 and have no issues. Been using it for a few days now and love it. Very smooth navigation. Couldn't ask for more at this point.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
For those that have remove the disable Lagfix in 7.01 do you notice much speed increase and battery use. I know the benchmark test shows improvement but I have read those can/are misleading.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I have no use for the lagfix anymore with these new roms, they are just very snappy stock.

This rom is so good that it has been like 4 days since my last flash...that is a HUGE statement since my ROMs werent even lasting a day lol
[Captivate Android Development] howsleyd:
Hi, first of all, I just want to say that I love your ROM so far. Very smooth and runs great so far on my Captivate with no lagfix applied yet :D

However, I am having one weird problem with the Wi-fi. I can't seem to get it to connect to my router. It has worked without a problem in the past on other ROMs so not sure what is going on. I have verified and re-verified my passkey so I know it is not that. It will try connect then a split second later it says disconnected under the Wi-fi settings screen.

I even click on the SSID and forget the network and try to reapply it. I also have flashed from stock since I guess I'm paranoid about changing builds without going back to stock (was on Axura before). So I guess I'm kind of stumped right now. Any suggestions? Do you think a reflash will fix it? Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] ccdoggy:
It could help. Try out my directions a page or so back. It will clear out everything but it could be the fix.
