Hello Adam,

Love the rom, have not flashed to 4.1 yet.

I have an issue with animated gif files not working in 3.5, are they fixed in 4.1?

This a link in particular that I use all the time.

http://belo.bimedia.net/KMOV/weather/animated-loops/radar-northwest.gif

Or if anyone can let me if if this link is animated with a 4.1 flashed phone?

Appreciate any help.

thanks Kevin

3.5 - 4.1

I do like all the black. Eyesight problems and black makes contrast great. There are things I did like better on 3.5 then on 4.1. I don't like the red effects and does anybody know of a circle batter indicator that will work on Phoenix ROMs

One major helping hand on this would be great. I copied all my settings to a folder on my desktop before upgrading to 4.1, How can I find app.s and setting I had in this file.... AND how do I install them?
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
Just from my experience, I installed FB2 thru CWM on 4.0.3 and had NO issues at all
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
QUick question; did you install FB2 with CWM or with the Kernel installer in the ROM?

Thanks, didn't know that was a separate app.
[Captivate Android Development] Mantu13:
Thanks. that did the trick. Is working now with 10m accuracy. Will test tracking tomorrow but this is great now for now.
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
Thank you but I already have the app that does what I need, I just need to know what files to pull out of 3.0 so I can have it in 4.1

of course it seems all my benchmark scores are lower in 4.1 than in 3.0 (with the same kernels)

so maybe I will just flash down and stay at 3.0,

the media app is where I spend most of my time, so if it aint in 4.1, neither am I

I've given up on trying to figure out when the GPS will work or not... and for the most part, I could care less. Believe it or not, for a majority of my adult life, we had no such things as GPS's to tell us where we were standing, or how to drive the 20 blocks to the supermarket. On longer trips, we just memorized the 4 turns that we'd have to make during the 300 mile drive.. (and just kept a map... that's a gps on paper... nearby in case we got really lost) :D

hey this here rom is great! personally, i like phoenix 3.0 because there was just so many options to choose from along with the color menu. now i am not criticizing. i liked the green/black contrast rather than the orange/black. also phoenix 3.5 and up would not let me change the boot screen. i would also like to know how i can change the wallpaper to that of phoenix 3.5? and while running 4.1 can i flash back to 3.0 or will i have to reflash stock and then 3.0? all help is much appreciated :)

Flash to Stock then Do OTA Udate and Get Huge Download Notification but Update Fails?

Ok...is there anywhere in the forum that says when you flash back and do an OTA update that this will happen? I tried searching and and nothing. If anyone would like to verify before flashing a new ROM to try OTA update and confirm what just happened to me this clear this up...thanks in advance. :)
[Captivate Android Development] sl0v4k:
ima try it it a few :) ill keep ya posted
[Captivate Android Development] hybernator:
Is your nv_data correct? But who knows,I couldn't do an OTA update even before I ever flashed
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Works great for me.what is it doing? Have you reset your ap?
[Captivate Android Development] kschumake83:
I couldnt do it either the one time i tried and that was after flashing only one rom. I think it was perception 4, and when i went back to stock i was thinking about leaving it stock but going up to jh7, but when it wouldnt work i gave in to my addiction and started flashing a new rom daily again.
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
And yes....months ago. Its just a update that we had.. hell i dunno now. Maybe 5 months ago. Sorry just thought it was funny!
[Captivate Android Development] fadetoblack2104:
Been on 3.5 for a while and am hesitant to change to 4.1 mostly because of the orange theme. But I'm a big boy and can theme it myself to my tastes if I want so I'm going to give this a shot. If you say its possibly your best work ever then how can I not try it. . .LOL!
[Captivate Android Development] kb9nvh:
Nice, where did this trick come from. This seems to have improved things immensely!! I'm at 16ft accuracy inside for the first time ever!!

My GPS was borked also, first time ever by a ROM by Adam. Try to go to sgs tools-> LBStest -> supl/cp settings -> and under FQDN put on auto. That should get at least basic gps back. How good? I haven't tried tracking yet.
[Captivate Android Development] Jdelgado:
Hi,

To flash from 3.5 with SpeedMod to 4.1 do we have to format back everything to rfs before flashing. Does the Cosmic76 theme compatible with 4.1 ?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
Btw, why do you clear battery and cache, if you look at the installation script those folders get formatted. :)

Just a word of warning on shortcut installation. I do it all the time and it can save time, but occasionally it doesn't work and you will need to reflash. This is especially true if lagfix method changed.

Also, don't leave the sd card in without backup of what is on there. I have had a situation before where the card got corrupt during the flash

yea didnt work :/ just another one of at&t's crap lol. but do u know by any chance of how to replace the wallpaper with that of P 3.5? i cant seem to figure it out.
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Thank god!! You'll be able to find the kitchen again!! :D As I've learned over the past several months... one day, standing still tells you nothing about how your GPS is acting. Try it every day for a week, especially while moving at different speeds and on different roads (preferably miles apart from each other). If you finally have a setup that allows it to lock in under 30 seconds and maintain that lock at speeds, AND keeps you on the actual road you're riding on, then smile and relish the moment. For you have a Captivate, and at any given moment, or on the next flash, or day ending in 'Y'... you'll be right back to a 2 min lock time.

Finally got to try 4.1. I am getting better reception (3g /h in area that usually gives me edge only). However, when I did get to e I noticed it is still green. Isn't that great to have a rom where the only complaint is on the color of one of the reception icons? :)

Bluetooth OBEX/Wi-Fi Issue

Has anyone else experienced problem paring Captivate running Phoenix 4.1 with computer via bluetooth while Wi-Fi is active?

I had to disable wi-fi before paring and had to keep wi-fi disabled while I sent files from my computer to my captivate via bluetooth file exchange. If wi-fi was active on phone while attempting to send, no progress was made. However, if a transfer was started and I started up the wi-fi on the phone, the transfer would still go though but throughput was dramatically reduced.

Can anyone else confirm this?

Is more than just the apk needed for the music player in 3.0

I have tried the MusicPlayer.apk from my 3.0zip and several from the music player threads in the rest of the forum

none are the player in 3.0

no equalizer, no visualizations, no disc view, no 5.1, no effects

:confused:

What files need to get pulled from 3.0 to have the music player from there in 4.1?

Thanks again for all your help.

>>>

OK

I made a bit of progress, with your help I will turn it into a Byte LOL

in 4.1 there is a /system/app/Music.apk

when I put the /system/app/MusicPlayer.apk from 3.0 on the phone and try to install it, I get a green check mark with "application not installed" next to it

I removed the Music.apk from app/ which did change things. The icon shown in Super Manager when browsing the app/ folder was the same for Music.apk and MusicPlayer.apk, until I removed the 4.1 Music.apk from app/ . Now MusicPlayer.apk shows the icon it had in 3.0

It still wont run or install and now it has (no install) in the filename

what did I do/not do?

I feel exactly the same on all points

[Captivate Android Development] stevenperry:
I add it to the ROM before flashing or perform and adb push to the /system/app folder. Either way works.
[Captivate Android Development] HDMitch:
The current road block with adb push is the system/app is set as read only and even root explorer, noob here, cannot touch it. Reflashing is no big deal but I would like to be able to make simple changes without having to tweak all my setting again...

I know I have been answering some of my own question but I do thank you for your help. :o
[Captivate Android Development] wilsongis:
In root explorer have you tried the RW toggle? You might also want to go to the speedmod lagfix recovery notions and click install root
[Captivate Android Development] LightningGA:
Another thing to try is if the app already exists in the folder your trying to place the new one in. Rename the old one by adding .bak to the end of it. It makes it a back up file. Then it's not trying to overwrite an existing file and the old one is still there if the new one doesn't work.

Actually, after your reply I just remembered I flashed the latest speedmod kernel over v4.1...going back to stock v4.1 to try.

You will have bars with or with out a sim card, that's normal cause the phone is able to call for emergency use still with out a sim

When you take the SIM out, it is registering signal because you can make "Emergency Calls Only" even without a SIM

Probably the better way to check the bar level is to compare it to the signal strength meter under settings -> about phone -> status

Ok lol but like five people have said the same thing and this has been talked about in other threads. Its like this on all phones just so you can use the phone for emergency use.

What works for others syncing music?

I've tried a couple of times for an answer to this. Does anyone have Phoenix 4.1 and can still sync with a music playlist on windows? What software are you using and how do you have usb configured on your phone - debug or not, media player or kies. I could sync with 3.5 and I still can currently move files between windows and my internal&external SD cards over USB so the drivers on windows recognize mass storage.

I'm not looking for anyone to solve my particular problem. I'd just like to know if it works for anyone with 4.1 and what do they use?

Well if you can't get it to work with root explorer then it should work by doing what you stated.

thank you!
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Not that it means much coming from me as opposed to another member of Team Phoenix but you are wasting your time. it is for emergency calls. You will always have signal regardless of sim in or not. Only difference is that you will not be able to call your GF/wife without your sim, only the police when you are not answering her calls bc you were testing this out.

STOCK ATT With SIM

So go figure ! :rolleyes:

And by the way, no body is arguing about emergency mode. We all know that.

It is a design thing. The idea of showing no bars, but indicating emergency mode is to INFORM you that your REGULAR service to make calls is unavailable, but ONLY 911 is available.

Makes no visual sense at all.
