OK, first full day on PHX7 and I'm jealous of those of you getting great battery life. Mine has been terrible thus far. I typically get on avg 20 hrs of life with most things I've run (including Adam's other ROMs also running speedmod 13C). Today, I unplugged at noon (after bump charging to a completely juiced up battery), was down to 15% by 7:00pm, recharged to 50% before going out at 8:15, phone shut off from dead battery at 1:00am when I got home. Usage has been the same, if not less, than usual.

Besides the battery, I'm loving this ROM/modem combo. JPG has given me the best overall performance of any modem I have run to date (disclosure: I live in Los Angeles). Data speeds are great, signal has been the best so far (my house is in a crappy service area and I can make calls in parts of the house I never could before), switches between 850 and 1900 with no problem. JL3 was the best for me before this and is still incrementally better for GPS.

Everything with the ROM has been flawless, stable and very fast. I'm hoping things improve with life after a couple more battery cycles.
[Captivate Android Development] EtherealRemnant:
I can't even get JPG to CONNECT to 850 - JL2 versus JK4, JL2 holds a connection better but I still dropped two calls to 611 about connectivity - and then they inform me that 4 of the 8 towers I connect two are in the "red" and the other 4 are "yellow" - meaning... my signal SUCKS.

I flashed JK4 with 0-1 bars... JL2 with 2-4... still dropped calls twice... I'm about to tell at&t to suck it and switch to T-Mobile...

Adam, the old 5.2 music player allowed me to have bluetooth connected and manually switch output to the headphone jack when I am in the car. The v7 version didn't have that option.

Also it doesn't have the equalizer options.

What are you using for both of these features?

Thanks again
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I got it working after Adam's help.

I would suggest not using the one from FF.

Adam has the fixed swype and will be releasing it. He is a bit busy at the moment.
[Captivate Android Development] LightningGA:
Here's a themed Swype that 00.ante has released, pick your poison: [APP]::13-03-11:New Themed Swype kyb::new vesion of Swype v2.15.56.1487::

I personally haven't tried it because I don't have my phone atm.

Happy Swyping!!

embarrassing aint it?

dont worry, she'll call:p

Did you fully uninstall swype beforehand?

Both the apk AND the lib?

Sent from your Id using XDAPremium
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
yep. tried and failed :(
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
same here

no more swype joy

just when I was getting used to it:(

says it has expired

so I uninstall it all, again

and do the whole process directly from swipe instead of trying a themed one

and it downloads, I run the installer, and it tells me "not installed"

what is broken on my phone?

as central as swype is to the Android experience we may as well have lost Gmail access

I know this isnt a rom issue but I hope you guys know what to do to make swype like us again

that is a whole line of Phones

Phoenix is for Captivates (SGH-I897)
[Captivate Android Development] zohawkish:
galaxy s i9000 ?
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
First, Adam has it fixed for the next release so if you can wait, you'll have it back.

If you can't wait... Remove swype from the /system/app and /system/lib directories. Reboot. Then signup/download the new beta from beta.swype.com and install.

If you've done that and it still doesn't work, try flushing your cache.
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
I knew I should have stayed up. I saw him ask for testers, but I had to passout.

I found the note about clearing delvik cache to allow the beta installer to run

doing that now

that didnt work either

I cleared delvik cache & cache partition

neither the themed one from 00.ante nor the one from beta.swype work

the download from swype still fails to install

the CWM from 00.ante says expired when you swype

guess I am swypeless till the new release
[Captivate Android Development] Sqb:
I kept trying and kept getting denied too until I saw that we had to clear dalvik and the cache partition. Worked perfect after that. But someone released some new themed swype already if u haven't already figured it out. Haven't had a chance to try it out as my battery is low since I'm trying to cycle our back to some type of normal after a weekend of flash dancing!

SqB
[Captivate Android Development] Sqb:
Bounce over to themes and apps it should be at the top by now or somewhere near it. You devs are just too good. Thank u all for such great work. you put the saaaaavy in tech saaaaavy!

SqB
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
you would want stuff for a Vibrant or GT-I9000, if I am not mistaken
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
that is the one that tells me it has expired

I have cleared caches ....again and am waiting on it to boot now

I will try the beta installer again

I have spent more time trying to get swype back than I spend flashing a whole rom(including time spent restoring the apps afterward)

Caffeine -

Adam,

i wanted to throw you some caffeine but the link on your first page dont work for me...

can check it?
[Captivate Android Development] indomikey:
Have you deleted it completely from Titanium Backup, or whatever backup program you use? then reboot.

And you deleted both files, swype.apk, and Libswypecore.so?
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
is there an echo in here?;)

Yes, root explorer, removed apk and lib

I know tibu does not remove it all

if you look up a few posts you will see that I asked that exact question of another person having trouble:D

THIS time it worked

swype installed from the beta site finally

what a pita!!!
[Captivate Android Development] indomikey:
Only thing I did, was Tibu to uninstall, then delete, then rebooted. Didn't need to do anything else, you got the swype installer? then it downloads? then it won't install? is that the process you have? The installer should prompt you to install it, then it prompts you to license it, after that it should be working

You do have to confirm your beta account with swype through your e-mail too.

Sometimes its the little things that mess people up, just verifying you got all the steps down.
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
When you delete the swipe.apk and the lib, you

have to reboot. Then install the Beta
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
so what do I have to do to make 00.ante's themed ones work?

or are they all invalidated with the new beta?
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
All I did was use supermanager in r/w mode and delete swype in system/app folder....reboot and install the new beta swype. All is good.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
On that note...

Flex T9 is an excellent alternative to Swype... Well worth the $5 price tag from Nuance. I also used Smart Key but Flex has four input methods..all great. especially the Voice input which is Nuance's primary business. It has the "Swyping" technology as well.

At the end of the day paid apps are usually the better apps. I don't understand people owning such a great and costly device then cheeping out on Beer and lollipop cost Apps. There are a ton of good apps out there
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
I don't know, I installed the beta from the Swype website

Battery life sucks...on Pheonix 7

Battery life sucks for this ROM. I flashed at 100% battery and left it overnight. When woke up the battery was at 27%. I am reflashing to something else.
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
If all you did was flash and go to sleep. You CANNOT make meaningful commentary. It takes a few charge cycles to show real data. What did you check verify it was the rom and not settings?

Did you set wifi sleep the same as you had before?

Did you check Samsung Apps update settings to be sure they were set to off?

I am having a FC on mms attachments. I have been sent picture but everytime i go to open it to make it bigger it just gives me a FC. I have went and cleared data but no help. I have searched back a little bit in the forum but thing has popped out.
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
Adam, I am having a strange shut down issue.

It has been quite regular since moving to JS7.

Every night my phone shuts off at between 45 and 55 percent battery.

It is not the old familiar issue with random shut downs, but a regular thing that only happens when then phone is left alone at night.

I used to have random ones all the time but that hasn't been happening for months.

This is definitely related to JS7. I know I seem to be the only one reporting this, so it must be something in my setup but I am at a loss to explain it.

Any suggestion is welcome.

Does someone have the.apk from the old music player?
[Captivate Android Development] emuking:
Switched from Precision 3.5 yesterday and was initially impressed. A days use after reinstalling all my apps and noticed that I lost certain functionality with Tasker (won't even toggle GPS) and FolderOrganizer won't let me disable showing notification icons along the top bar (greyed out in options). The first was tolerable(ish) but I have 3 notification shortcuts in FolderOrganizer, which pretty much makes it full all the time and too full when I get notified by other apps. Serendipity 6.2 here I come till CM7 is stable.

Also, battery life is of course not as great as Precision...

Sent from my Samsung Captivate w/ Phoenix 7.0
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
i have the same problem with tasker and gps toggle. This wasn't a problem on Phoenix6, just with 7.0

no big deal though (at least for me, anyway)
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
I think this is what you are looking for

dont install it, just drop it in your /system/app or /data/app folder
[Captivate Android Development] electroau:
Thanks very much!
[Captivate Android Development] emuking:
Meh, it is something I could live without (put it that way and I could say I can live, less happily, without this phone), but at the same time I really want FULL functionality of Tasker to finally be available to me. No ROM I've tried at the moment supports everything except CyanogenMod, and I haven't even tried that ROM because it's not stable for the cappy, yet. Would be amazing to be able to toggle Edge/3G automatically according to my own specifications. Alas no ROM dev here has implemented support that Tasker can utilize for that, among other Tasker functionality written as "CyanogenMod only." Put my perspective that way and I only see this ROM, 7.0, as a step in the wrong direction.

Sorry for the slight diss Adam, how about something positive? I LOVE the boot screen animation: super sexy and trippy! And compared to other ROMS, this was impressively smooth/fast without further modification. Hope development goes well for you, good luck. I'll stay subscribed to keep up with future updates. Peace.

Sent from my Samsung Captivate w/ Phoenix 7.0
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Slight diss? The only thing you like is something he didn't create. (Boot anim) If you have a problem with the rom, then choose another... not sure why people have the need to knock people's hard work when it's offered up for free.
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
Adam this rom works amazingly well. Sure there may be things here and there that might not work with it. I for one haven't found any. This has made my phone way better than it came stock and way better than anything at&t or samsung will ever do. Thank you for your hard work and everything you have done for this community.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Thank you. You will love 7.3 tonight then. Swype and call recording and a few other things are in it.
[Captivate Android Development] electroau:
Mmmm it doesnt show up, maybe I have to delete the other music player or other files somewhere??
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Did you reboot?
[Captivate Android Development] keller.jeff:

Js7 has been so smooth!
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
how/where did you copy it

did you mount /system r/w before copying it?
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
I think is was more of a very poorly worded "bug report"

I have always had problems with powercontrol widget

I only use widgestoid2
[Captivate Android Development] electroau:
Yeah, and I can see it in the aps folder, it just doesn't show in the programs list

*doing Stimpy's Happy Dance*
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
which apps folder?

please be specific

also, the one in the rom is Music.apk, not MusicPlayer.apk(which I gave you)

so you should see both in root explorer after pasting it into /system/app
[Captivate Android Development] electroau:
System/app
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
I just dl'd the apk, put it in the /system/app folder and rebooted... worked fine.

You' re quite welcome sir. I look forward to coming home from work tonight and updating to 7.3 thank you for everything

[Captivate Android Development] aalh:

you already told me you can see it.

what are the permissions on it

have you tried rebooting to see if that makes it show up?

did you use Root Explorer or another method to place it in /system/app ?
[Captivate Android Development] PersonOfKnownOrigin:
Can't wait for the update. My phone suddenly started acting up on me. Been running fine since 7 came out but earlier today it locked up and now the power button doesn't respond to anything. The only change I made was installing the Swype beta. Hope I don't have to mercifully put it down. Although,,, the GS-II just passed FCC with AT&T bands...

Can't wait for 7.3. love these roms

Been using Phoenix ROMs for a while, and had 4.5 until today. Installed 7.0 and all went ok. Wanted to change my modem to JK4 through CWM but now my phone just reboots once it first see's the launcher. Have changed a few modem's in the past thru cwm without any problems. This time, it just reboots, tried a few different modem's but no success. Any suggestions. I thought this ROM could be used with a JK4 modem's?
[Captivate Android Development] oblivianz:
Try reflashing, I've tried JL2, KP1 and JK4 modem on Phoenix 7.0 and they've all work just fine.

When I say I can see it, I can see it using root explorer looking in the system/app folder,

Adam, thank you for your wonderful work, my fiance just saw the screen shots for pr7 and handed me her cappy and said "I want that on my phone now."

I spend today getting both of us on 7, and now look forward to 7.3 :) Me more than her, I got used to swype.
[Captivate Android Development] evrionis:
How did you install the JK4 modem? Thru CWM?

Which JK4 modem file did you use? There seem's to be a few.
[Captivate Android Development] oblivianz:
Yes through CWM, got it from the stickied 'The modem thread'.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnsondr80:
Yes I got my jk4 there too.

Named update.ugjk4modem.zip

Works top notch
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
thank you for clarifying for my muddled mind;)

try moving the music apk from the app/ folder to /sdcard leaving only the apk I posted in /system/app

then reboot

I think I had to get the music.apk out of /system/app before it would recognize musicplayer.apk

this was a few roms ago

I forget which version you are running now
[Captivate Android Development] gokartracer5:
So far, 53% battery left at 1 day and 5 hours. Pretty kick ass. It has been mostly on wifi though. I have samsung sync off and google sync on btw. Tomorrow will be the big test where I will be mostly off wifi. This time i wiped the caches before flashing. I haven't flashed any themes or tried using juice defender yet. Awesome that pandora is working now. :)

Can't get mms messages. found that they don't go thru at all on wifi. off wifi they cause a force close for messaging all together.
[Captivate Android Development] rob1216:
Wish I could get battery life like that 4 hours 20min unplugged and I'm at 66% wifi on whole time, background data off, Brightness all the way down and all I did was browse a few web pages and watch 2 youtube videos, I recalibrated battery and wiped stats didnt seem to help. This Rom is mad fast but isnt too good on battery life IMO. Only thing I changed was modem to Jk4

[Captivate Android Development] flyboy021:
Is there a site with Captivate that details what gives the best battery life. I can barely get 16 hours out of my phone even with Phoenix 5.2-7. Phoenix 4.5 was the best for me with the KP1 modem, and using one of the speedmod kernels (can't remember which one). It would loose 2-3% each hour with moderate use. That was the best I've ever done.

Also, does everyone use the lagfix with 7.0? It seemed to be better not using lagfix when I first installed it. Did everyone else see that?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
hey adam quick question: im on pheonix 7 and i flashed the firefly swype fix and then x themed the swype.apk for me to match dark fire, will that themed swype work with the fixes for swype in the new "ultimate" framework?
[Captivate Android Development] gokartracer5:
Wifi Sleep policy set to never

samsung updates off

jk4 drained the battery fast for me.
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Battery life is really dependent on how you use it. 16 hours is about average for this phone with normal use. If you use it alot, bounce between signals, GPS, wifi. All these things will take a toll on your battery. Best bet is to try different things to get as much battery as you can
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it!
[Captivate Android Development] kaljr1980:
Im sure here at xda you should find most your answers.

Try the same modem kernel combo as in 4.5 check the changelog on first page...

As far as lagfix it comes down to personal preference.

Sent from Stephen Hawkins' lair
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Let's not forget... in addition to the above, every battery itself is different... manufacturing processes are not always the same, age of the batteries are different, some run hotter than others, etc... There are a lot of different parameters that go into determining the longevity of battery life. On average, if you can get a waking day out of a battery with slight to moderate use, I'd say consider it good.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Change it to when screen turns off. You'll see a huge improvement in battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] flyboy021:
Thanks, I've been using "never when plugged in"!
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Guess what everyone, I now have call recording working without adding gibberish to random text and it works flawlessly. Recording is crystal clear and it is a very easy feature to use. Also, I am working with the testers to come up with new ideas and will update the credits accordingly and we have a couple new members to Team Phoenix as well that I will introduce later on. But, here is what you can expect later tonight.

1. Call recording that does not mess a damn thing on your phone up like the other mods

2. UI tweaks to the dropdown

3. JK4 modem as it is just the best for most.

4. One new lockscreen possibly(it is the Sense Slider) what are your thoughts?)

5. Same themed dialer but with messaging tie in instead of second VM button

6. Updated SGS Tools

7. Voice Dialer added back in(sorry for forgetting in the last couple of releases)

Possibly more, who knows:)

Edit: Also added the system volume tie to the notification volume(Thanks to Di11i for his help on that one), and the stay awake while plugged in option.
