Hi Adam,

Long time supporter of Phoenix and Firefly.

I have been using 4.5 for a while now and the GPS locks quick but seems to always just have 30m accuracy. Where previous versions of firefly and phoenix I get lock with 5-10m accuracy. I am in Toronto Canada. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Nigel

MP3

Well I downloaded two other music players. I now realize, It's a sound issue. On a second note. Not sure if this is something seen before. I purchased Cube music player when I was still un-rooted. It's not showing up in my list of purchased apps.

Thanks

I also had that problem where it is tough to read some things in the Market. I applied the 2.2.11 market that xBarbarian pointed out and it works great. It even seems faster but that could be my imagination.

Yet another question about GPS

My 1007 build Captivate has very good GPS with "stock" Phoenix 4.5 - JK4 modem, etc. The only update is to the 13A SM kernel. My wife's 1007 build Captivate has never had good GPS. I have been trying to get it to close to as good although I don't drive around with it. I recently tried the GoogleGPS.zip and instructions. All the settings in LBSTest mode were already correct, etc. I got 9 satellites and occasionally a 5 meter accuracy during the test mode. I had both of them side by side (same view of the sky) when driving recently and most of the time her cappy tracked as well as mine but occasionally would completely lose the signal, fall behind, etc and then finally find the position again. I updated to her cappy to the KP1 modem and it seemed even better and I thought maybe it is FINALLY fixed but again it lost the signal sometimes when mine did not. I told her we can switch phones for a bit so I can experiment with different modems, etc. However, if I'm not driving is there some way to get a decent guage on what will work best? If I am in "Position Test", can I look at the DB levels and # of satellites compared to mine in the same location and will that in any way tell me how good it will be when driving? She has different apps but anything "core" to the phone - ROM, config, kernel, etc is the same. We both use Google Maps and Navigation but I am now wondering about trying other nav apps that MIGHT help on her phone. Any suggestions?

Also, I still think it is bizarre that the same build in the same location with the same ROM, etc would have such different results.:confused: I've even wondered if there is something wrong with her hardware...Sorry for the long post but I have tried fixing her phone many times but I don't have it with me often so it makes it tougher.
[Captivate Android Development] stangman:
OK, don't blast me for this suggestion, but, I did this. Did you flash another kernel? Which version, check in About Phone and make sure it's not the I9000 version.

Pandora

Just an FYI, I noticed this morning(it may have been sometime this weekend or just prior) that Pandora had an update in the market. It's up to version 1.5.4. If you haven't d/led it yet, you may try the latest one. Just trying to help as I anxiously wait for SN and use Pandora daily as well.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I have even tried the latest Pandora. I can not figure it out for the life of me. Slacker Radio works just fine which makes no sense.
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
did the logs I sent you, help any?

I noticed that after the FC, pandora is still running in the bkgnd. I'm using OSMonitor and when I sort by 'mem usage', pandora is listed. I'm guessing the FC just doesn't close it completely but I'm sure this probably doesnt help but I'm not sure what else I can do on my end :/
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
I won't shoot you:) Interesting, I poised the question a couple days ago on what I needed to do to find a theme that worked for me. I was told to look for a theme built on the i9000. Yes I'm actually using one suggessted to me.

I wonder if the theme is also causing the aoto rotation problem I'm having!

Adam, Nun! These were things I was working with Nun on. Refreshing my issue I needed a Blue on Black theme. I'm now running Cosmic76 v5:confused::confused:

////////////////////

Just a clarification - gschwarz was asking if you updated your KERNEL to an I9000 one which would be wrong. You need a Captivate kernel. However, you can choose an I9000 theme since the Phoenix ROM makes it look like an I9000.

Adam and Nun could confirm but I believe what I said is correct. Check your kernel to make sure that is OK.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Check your PM!!
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Yea, sorry its got me in a tailspin. Yes I installed speedmod-kernel-k13a-500hz-CWM. I installed it a few hours after flashing Phoenix v4.5. I installed the theme 3-4 days later.

I know you must have about a few things going on, so here goes, thank you for your time and coding in Phoenix, it seems to be the only rom that will do voice capture and video capture in texting, it runs great. i am jonesing for your new project supernova, any status on when you might throw it to use users. thanks again

The GPS locks really fast but as for accuracy it is drifting all over the place for me. I had to turn Nav off 30 miles into my trip because it world reroute every couple of minutes that female mono tone voice was driving me crazy.

Well this gets even better. Seeing how most of my communica is via text I hadn't noticed a REALLY big hmmmm. My wife called me, she could hear me but I herd nothing. I don't hear dial tones (such as when you dial, there's no sound same when texting. yes the settings are set to sound and haptic feedback. The only sounds I do get are incoming call ring and incoming text
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I really don't know what to tell you. I get the dial tones, text alerts and all system tones I did not disable.

Sorry Adam I know you mentioned earlier you weren't sure what to do about this. I was re-submitting it but with my added new discovery.

Adam is SN soon to release. I'd like to just get out of this flash and start fresh

Thanx, Tomween1

In regards to the latitude issue. Please go to it through your maps settings menu for the first time like the old gps work around. After that it will be fine.

Thanks, btw, I'm working on a nice themed miui music player for SuperNova.

I have a ? For anyone who may be able to help... I'm trying to edit xml and every program I use, when the file is opened if shows null...null on all lines..my goal, if possible, with this is to force miui widget to lock screen like power amp.

Any ideas would be great
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Well, you need to decompile the apk using apk manager or apk tool and then edit the xml and then recompile as a signed apk.
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
To edit the XMl you have to decompile it with some like apktool.

Edit X beat me to it

Ok sweet will give that a try, I was under assumption that you could open through 7 zip...we know all what ASSumption does to some...

gallery is waking up the cpu every 10mins as per task manager.

tried clean_thumb_db using sgs tools.. It says

the problem persists.

clear SU permission from SU app for sgs so as to create new rule for it. did not help.

im using k13a speedmod kernel with all ext4 (including /system)

Update:

Seems like SU issues as experienced by others after converting /system to ext4

looking into reinstalling SU n busybox..

Update 2:

Applied SU+busybox from recovery..

SU is working fine now..

clean_thumb_db complete..

hoping problem is resolved.

Update 3:

problem persists

[Captivate Android Development] phoneturf:
Not that the following is a problem for me since I have been running 4.5 for almost two weeks and it performs fine and, more importantly, the battery life is much better than any other rom I have tried.

The issue is that benchmarks are the same whether or not voodoo lagfix is installed. I check and ensure that when it is active, the file system is ext4 and when not, it is rfs. The benchmarks are about 50 for nema, 56 for neo, 14 for linpack, and 1260 for quadrant, whether or not lagfix is installed. After looking through the other posts in this thread, these values are normal for this rom, but it seems like lagfix would have some effect on at least one of them.

is it possible to put js3 on this rom without any problems
[Captivate Android Development] kennonk:
Are the themes posted on www.phoenix-hq.com fully compatible with 4.5? I applied Cosmic76 v5 last night from the site and lost my home button haptic. Not that big of a deal, I am just curious if there is an easy fix.
[Captivate Android Development] electroau:
Just flash the heptic fix on the first page of this thread and it fixes it.

[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
Need some quick advice...I love Phoenix 4.5 and love my settings as they are right now. Is there someway I can take a snapshot of this to preserve everything, i.e. ROM, kernel, modem? Would using ROM Manager and the backup script take care of that?

Pretty much I want this saved as is so I can flash supernova and give it a try. if i don't like it, I can come back to my phone how it was and be happy. :)

If ROM Manager is the way to go? Will I lose all of that backup when I flash supernova? I'm not at my computer so I can't back everything off onto my computer. I'm sure this belongs on Q&A but since I'm flashing Phoenix to Supernova, all part of Adam's crew, I figured this was the best place to ask.
[Captivate Android Development] whiteguypl:
Boot into recovery there is an option to create a backup.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Yes Rom Manager will make a backup that you can use but it does not backup the kernel or modem both of which can be flashed after restoring your back up prior to booting for the first time. Just make sure you have the Clockwork flashable zips on your internal SD card.

Just a little nudge here, as I couldn't see if anyone answered my question from before.

Things move so fast around here, maybe my weak little post got left behind. So I found the little guy about 40 pages back, and I present him to you again. :D

And a bit more info for you - this is happening with 2 different SD cards. I have rebooted.
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Ok, have been on 1.5 for a couple of days now and have to say I'm very satisfied so far. Perhaps I was lucky this time, but I haven't had nearly the number of issues that I've seen floating around. Had to put in the camera.apk (haven't done the email.apk yet) but that's been about it.

Speed is good, battery has been as good or better than previous ROMs (Cognition and Perception), no FC's as of yet on any applications I run... the GPS, well... it appears to lock on fairly quickly, but on a recent navigation test, was pretty bad... couldn't hold the lock on a cloud free sunny day so it kept rerouting or showing me off in a field somewhere. (I use google maps/navigation)

I do like the look and feel of this ROM... and look forward to see what's coming up in future releases.

It's funny, how different phones have different reactions.

I'm having fc's from the video (not that I use it much), regardless of the apk fix. But my GPS is the best I've ever seen. I ran tracker, and out was as cloudy to perfect as it could be.

So fast this ROM is by far the best I've installed......quite possibly ever.

I think my sd snafu was a noob move, I think I hit the mount button.
[Captivate Android Development] JamesR913:
I told my self earlier today not to come back to this thread because I am extremely happy with every aspect of this ROM.
