For anyone that is using this ROM and Speedmod kernel,if you have went from Speedmod "i" version to the "j" version have you noticed anything that makes you feel it worth it? Are there some improvements you really like? I am on "i" now and wondering if I should go to "j".

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] ooo.stephen:
i gave speedmod K12I a brief try, but it felt like apps such as phone dialer my sms app, opened slower. my quadrant scores always returned ~1200 range, compared to ~1500s with this rom and kernel. i didn't test extensively, and would like to hear others experiences between these two kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
Speedmod "i" is the only Kernel I have tried other than the one that comes with Darky. I like Speedmod because my battery life seems much better.My Quadrant scores are Higher than Darky Kernel without Voodoo with this Kernel but lower than Darky with Voodoo but I don't think quadrant tells you anything(IMO).
[Captivate Android Development] xaudiblex:
For me, it seems like the contacts load a hair faster with the new J. I was fast but J is just a bit faster. I am calibrating the battery right now so I can't comment on the battery drain; so far so good though

Love the 8.01 Rom, but I need some help.

How do I change the time settings on the phone to read in 24 Hour format?

How do I change the temperature in the Daily briefing widget to read fahrenheit instead of celsius?

I wish the Darky Rom 8.01 had a more Gingerbread theme, with the dark phone dialer, and with some of the icons (messaging, camera, gallery, etc.). Are any of these changes coming in future revisions?
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
downloading to flash tonight, thanks
[Captivate Android Development] captiv123:
Hello,

I installed the ROM on the root on my SD card, but for some reason my captivate is only referencing the internal SD of the phone. So I put the ROM on there, but when launch ROM Manager and I click it, it shows me all the files inside the ROM. Do I need to add an extension to the end? I am on mac, and followed all your instructions. Thanks so much, and I will make a donation..
[Captivate Android Development] Brock Samson:
It should be on the root of your internal sdcard. Did you by chance unzip the file? Or are you booting into recovery to see these files, or are you seeing them through the Rom Manager app?
[Captivate Android Development] shinigammi:
hello, the 8.0.1 can be in my i897???, the v8 can`t use in my i897
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
So just to make sure, yttr's port of darky's mod is a wipe version, correct? I just got 7.8 to work great and I don't want to have to go through backing up and everything again just to get 8.0.1.
[Captivate Android Development] iNFRiNGE:
You should always go back up no matter what
[Captivate Android Development] timur525:
Hey Guys,

i flashed this without flashing to stock first(was traveling) and now im kinda screwed. I flashed it and all was going good. i disabled my lagfixes, wiped cache, dalvik, all that good stuff. I selected install zip form sd and selected the ROM. It was copying files like normal and then all of a sudden 8 lines of deleted files - deleted files - etc.. appeared. I flipped but then it rebooted into the Nexus S Boot anim. I was super thankful only to be welcomed by a bunch of those vibrations you get when you fc, and then it just reboots. I cant do recovery, dl mode doesnt work with usb cable, or by booting on holding "home" down. Am i screwed? i cant make a JIG either, soo...

Pl0x help. If not i guess ill have to get that new 4.5 sAMOLED'd phone for my birthday.

TIA - Daniel.
[Captivate Android Development] iNFRiNGE:
Okay first of all calm down sparky and tell us what type of phone you have? There's a 99% chance we'll get you through this.

Also take your battery out and tell us what batch number you have on your phone it is a Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Do you know if download mode worked before you tried flashing? A jig might be your only option, you can buy one for $15 shipped ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861104 ) or make one ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=889128 ). It's neither expensive nor difficult, and it has a high success rate.
[Captivate Android Development] iNFRiNGE:
Take your battery out... start oden... Put your battery back in..usb connected to your computer... hold the volume up and down keys down at the same time hit the power button hold it down hold on all 3... when your screen goes black twice slide down to only volume down and power only. Phone should boot into download
[Captivate Android Development] timur525:
Alright my batch 1009. i also managed to get into recovery somehow, and then i still had the option to "reboot into download". so i did. I flashed stock JP7 cuz JF6 doesn't play nice( the one-click i mean). Now i have stock JP7 but its saying:

Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

(Invalid argument)

E: copy_data_default_apk: Can't mount DBDATA:

your storage not prepared yet, please use ui menu for format and reboot actions.

IS this good? i cant get dl mode anymore though, there isn't a reboot into download anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] sfdff20:
Hopefully this is just a small glitch but i just flashed to 8.0.1 and now i cannot send sms or mms any ideas ?
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
Well, yes I realize that, but does flashing wipe data with this version or will it maintain data? I already have a backup in case, but I'd rather not have to go through reinstalling every applications I have on my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] captiv123:
Next problem ---- please help

Ok so I got the file working on my mac (my browser automatically uncompressed the file so I had to rezip it before putting it onto the internal SD card.. I then opened ROM Manager and selected the darky file (I had tried with and without a wipe of data I believe)....

This is what happened (the log on my screen);

Any suggestions what may be wrong?

Thanks so much for your help :)
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
Find a way to not unzip it. Unless you sign the zip file again, it will mess it up if you unzip the rom first.
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
Use Titanium backup pro and batch one click restore gets all your apps restored.
[Captivate Android Development] captiv123:
Thanks so much, my safari was unzipping apps automatically - thought it was the same. Will try that next :)

Btw do you know if there is a stock rogers captivate rom available in case I decide fro any reason to restore to stock??

Sorry did some searching and foung it, thanks again everyone :)
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
Hi everyone,

I just got my Captivate last week and been trying out different Rom's to see which one works best for me. I started out using 7.8 and flashed to a few other ones to see which one can give me better battery life. After the 8.01 released I decided flash again to Darky and decided to flash the speedmod i897-k12j and flash to JI6 modem.

When I flashed to Darky 8.01, I flashed back to stock and made sure I was at 100% with the battery. Since waking up this morning and pulling my phone off the charger, it has already drained 10% in half hour and I have only turned on the screen a couple times and I hadn't done anything with my phone yet. Is this normal? I have done the battery drain and charge back to 100% and delete the Battery stats before, but that was a couple flashes ago.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I redo Battery Stats and recalibrate Battery after each ROM Flash,I read somewhere that should be done. Another thing I did was I completely drained my Battery and then recharged again I have read about this and there some opinions that it helps. Mine does seem to do much better now.
[Captivate Android Development] hamburgertrain:
Check to see if you have an APN set up for your network, and make sure you have the correct message center number.
[Captivate Android Development] Ptaaty:
I am having the exact same problem except I started with Cognition and loaded in the same speedmod kernel. I have done both the battery stats deletion and calibrate (steps at beginning of cog thread) and still having the battery issue. Also I drained it DEAD - and it starts charging with a good chunk (20%?) on the off charging screen (big green battery). Sucks. I am redoing it again.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
Not to change the subject but what is the supposed advantage of the JI6 modem?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] azhar230:
when you see 20% after full discharge, unplug charger again and drain again. it will drain completely to 0%.
[Captivate Android Development] Brock Samson:
Yea, do not unzip it. If your mac keeps unzipping it, turn wifi on your phone and try to download it straight onto your phone, then move it from the downloads folder to the root of your sd with a file manager.
[Captivate Android Development] matt310:

For gingerbread theme, you can try any theme which works on jpy. There are many themes in " themes and apps" section of captivate and galaxy s.

[Captivate Android Development] ooo.stephen:
i immediately lose a few battery points too. has anyone suggested that multiple flashes while near 100% degrades that portion of the battery, a thus it can't hold a charge as well as the lower range can? i've seen similar battery behavior in my laptop.

[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
Just had my 1st weird Problem with Darky's with Speedmod. I had for the 1st time turned on Pandora app(I had never tried Pandora on Custom ROM) and was listen to music with Headphones. I decided to change Pandora channel which it did but after about 5 seconds the phone rebooted itself. It didn't show the i9000 splash screen it just went right to the "X" screen. I let the phone sit about 5 min and it Booted on. Has anyone seen anything like this?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] ooo.stephen:
following up on this, further testing seemed to indicate that the defaulted band doesn't matter. i again was defaulted to the 1900 band with v8.0.1, but after registering on the ATT network, my speeds were great, and yet GSM Band options showed 1900...go figure. i guess if at first you don't get good speeds, just test again.

So I flashed this rom last night and everything is working fine. The only problem I'm getting is that anytime I get a call, the phone vibrates for 1 sec then i get a message saying "SIM card removed. Reboot phone." I've taking of the SIMs card, rebooted phone, wipe cache and dalvik. Any suggestions? Sorry if i missed a simple step. I've only flashed roms on the Droid and Droid Incredible and its a bit different on the Captivate. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] chvybeatsford:
Ok so i updated to 8.1 hopping it would solve my issue.

Nope..

After charge over night i always have no signal. Reboot phone will bring it back but after about 10 mins i lose it again. Another reboot and its usually fine for a few more hours. Seems to only happen on I900 based roms.

Any fix for this as i like Darky roms but cant have this every morn.
[Captivate Android Development] cumanzor:
Just out of curiosity, have you tried flashing a Captivate kernel?

Well I did a resfore with Odin and flashed 8.0.1. Wireless seems to be disconnecting and reconnecting after sometime, but it looks like might be an issue with the router.

Now I have a bigger problem that I managed to solve out of luck on previous occasions. I don't have any kind of mobile connectivity. I cannot add any APN because the settongs wont be saved. Anybody else having this problem?

Overall this is an awesome ROM. Thanks OP and everyone involved.
[Captivate Android Development] chvybeatsford:
No havent tried that yet.. So far since this post i had to restart my phone 3more times due to no signal. No 3g . Just a x over the bars.

What one u suggest?
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Try flashing a new modem, they're in the stickies in Captivate Android Development. JL3 is what's included in the ROM, try JK4 or JL2.
[Captivate Android Development] chvybeatsford:
Thanks. Will try that once i get home. Hopefully no important text come through
[Captivate Android Development] sabesh:
Going back to 7.0.1 which has the least amount of issues :)

Email FCs (7.0.2) and GPS issues (7.5) are deal breakers for me. Perhaps a later build will address these and I'll try it out. Thx!
[Captivate Android Development] cumanzor:
The one linked in the OP.

Which is UGJK4. Same as yours it seems.
[Captivate Android Development] DarrellRaines:
Maybe reinstall and do a wipe this time around in case you haven't already did it?

You can flash the original ROM like I did (I eventually make it over to the port version at some point, I just hate to wait for ytt to put it up) and then install the kernel and modem yourself.

Other than that I don't know.
[Captivate Android Development] nybmx:
I don't think CWM changes color with voodoo enabled. I guess I could be wrong but I've never noticed that when I've used it before. Also when I enable voodoo I just delete the "disable-lagfix" file in the folder. I don't know if changing the name of the folder itself could cause a problem or not but I wouldn't want to risk it.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I am at 7.01(never made 7.02) I think I'll hold off doing 7.5 for a while. I can get lock with GPS and everything else I use running fine with 7.01.

It says fixed battery drain in the changelog, but was there really that much drain in 7.0.1? I didn't notice it but are you people noticing significantly better battery life on wifi?

[Captivate Android Development] DocRawk:
I just wanted to say this rom rocks. I installed the i9000 version and then flashed x's kernel last night. I've used several roms since getting this phone, and I've got to say this one is simultaneously the slickest looking and snappiest/least laggy rom I've tried.

Quick question. Any reason I should reflash this version? The i9000 version is working great with xcaliberinhand's most recent bln/voodoo kernel flashed over it.

Will try out the gps while out and about today. Everything else is running exceptionally.
[Captivate Android Development] rootnik:
Battery life doesn't seem to be as good for me as 7.0.*, has anybody else noticed this? It may just be me...
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
I would like to know how people feel about battery life as well since I cant really compare the two (I only had 7.0.2 on my phone for like 3 hours before this came out and I flashed it).
[Captivate Android Development] rootnik:
7.0.2 may have been the best battery life I have had on an i9000 rom (if not it was towards the top). I really haven't given 7.5 a chance to make a fair judgment on battery life just yet, I was just posting my initial reaction after a few hours of use.
[Captivate Android Development] kingfisher1111:
I believe it is draining my battery like anything. Before sleeping when on 7.5 was at 85% at 12AM.

Got up at 4:30 AM and saw the battery status at 60%. Only wi-fi on and BLN on.
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
Hmmm... Then I may just go back to 7.0.2 and add the fixed email.apk and mms.apk from the 7.5 rom so that it is perfect.
[Captivate Android Development] viny2cool:
I agree. 7.0.2 gave me best battery life...with best signals for wifi and network....

Is the JK4 modem culprit here? I think 7.0.2 was using JL3...

I am going to flash JL3 on it....lets see what I get...

I'd like to try this rom, but I'd also really like to have haptic feedback on the home button. Could this be added or can I get pointed to a mod that can enable this? I did search but couldn't find anything. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I think part of my Battery drain is WiFi Sleep Policy setting. I go to Spare Parts app and when I check the Wifi Sleep setting there it shows none of the 3 options checked at all. So I "check" the Android Default option and it Highlights to Green so it on. But if I Power Down the Phone or reboot and go check Sleep Option again nothing is checked and I have to redo. Does anyone else have this Problem?
[Captivate Android Development] ooo.stephen:
i have something similar. i can not get any of the 'spare parts' wifi options to stay set. no matter what i do, it stays on 'never', as in never sleep. i ended up force closing it, and i let 'juice defender' manage wifi (its disabled with screen off, and enabled with screen on). so far its working, and oddly enough, apps seem to launch a bit quicker. all in all it seems to be a good solution. i lost 7% in sleep mode over night, ~8hrs.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I too have Juice Defender and it running but just on Default setting. I wondering if Juice Defender running may be over rides the Spare Part settings. I'll do what you have done and Customize Juice Defender. Did you customize Defender to make it do what you wanted or is that a Default?

Thanks

H stands for HSUPA. H is one step ahead of 3g. In 3g, HSDPA is enabled. When H is displayed, HSUPA is enabled as well. More upload speeds, which may lead to more download speeds!

i'm pretty sure i'm on the default purchased settings. not sure how they differ from the free version. wait, except, i did disable all apps from its wifi policy. that seems to give screenOn/Off total control. another note, i'm also using 'screbbl' to keep screen on when in use. together with JD, its very effective.

Thanks. I did try this and we'll see how it goes. Although I'm beginning to suspect it is a router issue, since I'm also getting random blank pages while browsing from my pc. maybe my router is dropping connections. DD-WRT logs are ****ing useless.

Discovered something else. If for some reason you cannot set or edit APNs, disable MarketAccess (or market enabler or any other similar tool) on boot sim numeric emulation. I couldn't believe it at first. I think you can reenable boot time emulation after setting the AP.
