I've been using my phone as a tether and sine I don't have the tether on my phone I'm piggy backing of my friends wifi. This makes it incredibly slow and unreliable. Is it possible to actually download Phoenix to my phone from the link and flash CWM or do I need to download the zip to my laptop and place it on my SD card?

I ask because this is the 3rd time it's timed out.

has anyone heard about a release date for 3.5 .....I want to flash 3.0 tonight but if 3.5 is about to break loose I will hold off>>>

i am not certain what the stock launcher is but it doesn't seem that you can change the doc icon/shorcuts..at least easily if at all. I can't even find any settings section for the stock launcher like most other launchers have.

if you like look of stock launcher with the 3 icon dock bar you can try ADW which is nearly identical and you can simply drag and drop whatever icon you want into the dock.

if you really want to customize your dock bar adw and launcher pro can both help you do that easily.

Exchange problem

This is my first venture into Phoenix roms and I'm loving it so far but I'm having one major issue. Have everything setup and going aside from exchange - everytime I put in my info it just sits for a minute or two on checking incoming server settings and it dosent look as if any data is being transmitted back and forth. Anyone else having this issue?

SpeedTest Server Location

First of Thank you for this great ROM.

I have a question: Every time when i run speedtest using 3G the server that i am pinging is somewhere in California or Colorado when i live in Oregon. The problem might be that i am in Oregon i don't know, however when i turn Wi-Fi on it locks a server here in Portland, OR.

I did implement the GPS_Fix and still does not find a near by server. What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions? Moving away from Oregon is not a possibility as of right now:p.

Thank you
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Odd as I have no lag at all. What are tou restoring? Have you fone through the base trouble shooting ex flash stock, master clear and then reload rom?

[Captivate Android Development] anthesca:
lagfix

Don't want to hurt any feelings. But 2.5 and 3.0 seem slower to me vs previous builds. Opening apps, app drawer, navigating market, especially noticeable when loading gallery. I had previously been doing Odin FTS and MC for previous installs. Could this be what is slowing me down, that I did not do Odin and MC. Quadrant (FWIW) is around 1500 and has been for most Phoenix ROMs for me. Prior to Aux and Phoenix, I was stock rooted with RyanZA ext2 lagfix and phone was screaming fast, not just on Quadrant (>2000) but also in real life. Any suggestions, it seemed like the manual lagfix in earlier Phoenix versions was faster than Voodoo. Are there any limitations to lagfix for 3.0. Any links available for previous Phoenix ext4 lagfix, any reason to not try OCLF. Thanks. If no feedback, I will do ODIN and MC before attempting a different lagfix since I am a noob. I know Voodoo is ext4, but we had multiple choices in earlier Phoenix's if I can recall a few weeks ago.

Here are the steps that i took to resolve all my Exchange Issues:

1. Erase the existing exchange acount from your phone.

2. Click on the Email icon and put in your credentials (user name and password)

3. Click on Manual setup.

4. On the domain name just add your domain in front of your user name which is typed there by default (/user name)

5. Put your exchange server address. On the spot for the exchange server you should see something like the following: if your email is joe@myserver.com you are going to see myserver.com at this point on my account the only thing i did was in front i typed mail.[/U][/I][/B]myserver.com

6. The next screen will ask you how many days would like to pull the emails. After you configure all that just hit done and everything should be fine.

P.S. On mine i use Automatic (Push)

I hope this helps

You have to open each .apk and change the png there. So for example, to change the camera icon, you need to go to system/app/Camera.apk/res/drawable-hdpi, and change the tw30_icon_camera.png with your new icon(renamed to the match the original png file)

GPS not working again after flash to phoenix 3.0

I flashed the 3.0 version of phoenix last night. Was running the perception 10 ROM. My GPS has not worked (locked on to a sat) since I got the phone in November. Perception build was the first time it did work. Liked what I saw with the Phoenix build and flashed it. GPS is back to not locking on again. Any ideas on a solution? Re-flash Phoenix?

Thanks

Battery Life

Am loving the ROM, best one so far, thanks

Any idea why I only get 4-5 hours of battery life though?

I tried to reconfigure the battery stats and calibrate the battery (once each) but am still watching it go down really quickly. It even drops to 97 when I take if off the charger (even though it said fully charged)..

Any suggestions??

Thanks so much :)

Does this ROM support UVing?
[Captivate Android Development] dario69:
Really? I just placed the nbh file on my SD card, reset to bootloader mode and install. I had a process to install my cabs after flash and then I was good to go. I never flashed stock, never hard reset, etc. It was quite easy and I never had issues. I guess I was lucky. And I talking about multiple HTC phones too. Not just one. It still seems like this process has additional steps compared to WinMo. I think the complaints are valid to a degree except when it came to HardSPL. I didn't like having to have an internet connection to HardSPL my HD2 and Pure. That was crap.

Regardless this custom rom looks very cool. Probably the best one in my opinion.

GPS.....with a twist

On v3.0. First, a superb production with the great keyboard and all. It is very smooth overall.

Now gettting GPS to work: my 2 cents. If you do not get GPS with supl.google.com settings etc. try this........

** Flash the TLJL3 modem.

** Use Launcher Pro to get into LbsTestMode

** Under SUPL settings set it to automatic.....yes "auto config" and all defaults.

** Under application settings set to standalone.

** BAM I have super GPS.

All Phoenix ROMs did not give me any GPS worth mentioning. I spent hours trying to flash back and forth with no effect. I knew from previous experience TLJL3 give good GPS response, but I can never get a lock or even use the GPS for anything. Yes setting the GPS to auto/defaults worked quite unexpectedly. It may be that the new fixes to modem/ROM makes the Custom settings unnecessary ??

Well, I am happy.....YMMV though !!!

Update on GPS

Alright everyone. As most of you know I put a ton of work into the GPS fixes I have used. Most of you also know the GPS on phoenix works, just not where you may want it to be. Well that is over. I did 2 long trips today, first was 45 mins on highway with route deviations and one was a little over an hour in the country with windy a$$ roads. I did not lose the lock on either trip. All I did was mod a few files and install the jpp modem. The files that are modded are included already in 3.0 but the jpp modem really made a huge difference for me. I have never had GPS that great!! I have included the modem as I baby you guys way too much. Please update with some feedback. Also, I made no changes in lbs test mode other than deleting gps data after flashing the modem. I did however turn on sensor aiding in settings/location.
[Captivate Android Development] electroau:
As for mnt... here is what I found... it looks like it is basically a Uinux "shortcut.

Do not delete !

http://www.incredibleforum.com/forum/htc-incredible-general-discussion/5764-mnt-folder.html

/mnt does not mean "a partition". It's a directory. The name, /mnt, is arbitrary, but by convention in Unix|Linux /mnt is used as a mount point. In Android, you'll always find /mnt being used as the mount point for the /sdcard filesystem.

/emmc is most assuredly a directory too.

/sdcard is a symbolic link to /mnt/sdcard. The only "space wasted" is a handful of bytes in the listing of its parent directory, in this case '/', yclept "root".

And

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/bugless/56989-mnt-folder.html

In Unix based operating systems any storage devices (hard drives, flash drives, cdroms) can be "mounted" in any directory. /mnt is a typical directory where these are mounted. You can type the 'mount' command from a terminal emulator and see everything thats currently mounted. You will see that the SD card in the droid is mounted in /mnt/sdcard.

Also in Unix based systems you can make symbolic links (think shortcuts in windows) that point to any file or directory. The /sdcard directory on the droid is just a symbolic link that points to /mnt/sdcard. You can see this by using a terminal emulator and typing "cd /" and then "ls -l".

So basically /sdcard is just a shortcut to /mnt/sdcard where the physical device is mounted. Hope this helps.

Would someone mind quickly outlining how to install a the new modem package? I'd greatly appreciate it!

EDIT: Would renaming the package to update.zip, placing it in root, and using recovery screen to install it work?
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
Leave it named whatever it is. Make sure there are no spaces in the naming

Copy the modem to your internal sd,

boot into recovery,

select reinstall packages (You may have to reinstall packages twice to get to clockwork recovery)

Once in Clock work recovery (Green Text) Select install zip from SDcard

Next Select Choose zip from sdcard

Scroll down to your modem and select.

Verify you want to install; select

Reboot after it's completed

This is the same process for themes, modems and kernels(Anything that is CWM Flashable)

Will give it a go... so far, did a few tests indoors with various programs and it looks pretty good. Overcast and snowing and still getting an average lock, and maintaining it, indoors in about 15-20 seconds.

Hey guys, I know a couple of people have posted about this and I have as well. Randomly I get an error saying the SIM card has been removed. After I got two of those I reflashed 3.0 with the SIM and external SD out of the phone. I have since gotten another of these errors. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be causing this? I hope it's not because I have removed my SIM too often when I flash to stock to feed my ROM addiction. :D Other than this error I think Phoenix is the best ROM I have tried and I've tried most of them. This didn't happen with any of the previous versions of Phoenix.

Thanks Adam and company for all your hard work putting this great piece together.
